About Wild Rose
A member of Optima Living
Wild Rose is an independent and assisted senior living community located at 9612 - 172nd Street NW in Edmonton close to the West Edmonton Mall in the Terra Losa Neighbourhood. We at Optima Living feel that it is an honour to work with our residents and enable every person to feel at home. We advocate a resident-centred approach where the resident is the focus of all of our endeavours and strive to fulfill all our residents’ needs so that they can live their best possible life. Since 2007, Optima Living has established a strong reputation as an owner and operator of seniors’ residential communities located in Western Canada. These communities range from Independent to Assisted Living, Long term Care to Memory Care Living as well as Residential Mental Health. It currently manages more than 800 beds, and has almost another 300 beds under construction in Alberta and B.C. Optima believes what sets it apart is the unique culture the company works to create in all its seniors residential communities, as stated in its North Star – Let us welcome you home.

COVID-19 Information
Maya Angelou once said, “Try to be a rainbow in someone else’s cloud.” It feels like it is a rather apt reminder as we continue to navigate the pandemic. While we remember to wash our hands, protect ourselves, and respect others, there are also ways in which we can focus on bringing hope and laughter to our community. Let us live with hope and zest for life even while enduring the challenges set before us. We must continue to stay focused on best practises, express gratitude to the caregivers and frontline workers, and above all continue to live in hope and look for ways to “be a rainbow in someone else’s cloud.”
Alberta remains under a state of public health emergency. New Public Health restrictions came into effect starting September 16th to reduce the spread and protect our health care system. Businesses participating in the Restrictions Exemption Program will require patrons or clients to be vaccinated or to show a recent negative test result. Recently, British Columbia announced that it will mandate that all healthcare workers be vaccinated for COVID-19 by October 31st, 2021. British Columbia also announced a Vaccination Passport System, and starting October 12th, all visitors to long-term care and assisted-living facilities will need to show proof they have received at least one dose.
Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
Wild Rose is a cosy, intimate, traditional community, unique among retirement homes in the city of Edmonton. That intimacy creates a warm, personal environment in which management and staff are exceptionally attentive to the needs of residents, as well as family members. Those who appreciate clear, authentic communication will find that at Wild Rose.
Another noteworthy aspect of this community is the excellent dining. It puts delight in every day when you can sit down to carefully prepared cuisine that’s wholesome and nutritious. When others are taking care of your basic needs, you can take up interests and passions you may not have realized you enjoy, or have simply been putting off. To experience the reinvigoration available at Wild Rose, you really need to move in for yourself.

General Manager's Message
Marie Concepcion
I have almost a decade of experience in facilities management and operational performance in the senior living industry and beyond. With my background in nursing, I have worked with some of Canada’s strongest brands.
I started my nursing career in Long Term Care in Campbell River, B.C. and eventually moved to Edmonton to work in Supportive Living, Memory Care, and Independent Living environments. I am an active member of the College of Licensed Practical Nurses of Alberta and am a member of the Hearing Tribunal Board for the College. I have acted as a mentor for the Colleges’ Mentorship program where I shared my experience to help new nurses reach their career goals.
I enjoy spending time with my husband and our dog, Meg. I also enjoy crafting, reading and cooking.
