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.
