Why is this number different on other websites? Many directories quote a community's "starting at" rent, before care fees. This figure is the state survey median adjusted by wages in the surrounding metro area, so nearby cities in the same metro share it. It is an estimate to plan against, not a quote; ask each provider for its own number in writing. Our methodology →

Adult day, family care, or affordable senior housing

Adult day care in Redfield runs about $1,631/mo at the median.

Part-time home care or entry assisted living

Part-time home care often lands in this band (full survey month for in-home care is $7,917). Local assisted living median is $5,436/mo. Small homes can sit below that midpoint. Ask about waiver programs if Medicaid may apply.
$7,000 – $11,000/mo

Every licensed nursing home

A note on counting: we show 0 licensed nursing homes listed for Redfield proper. Other sites show bigger numbers when they count a wide radius. Nearby options are linked below, labeled by city.

How we rank these: we don't. Listed by verification date, newest first.

Providers appear with their government data: license status, capacity, inspection history, and a CMS star rating where the service has one. The order is the date we last verified each record, newest first. Nobody pays to appear, and nobody pays to move up. If a listing says "Sponsored," a provider paid for that placement and the label says so.

Looking for a transparent sort by CMS stars, inspection records, and staffing? That is a separate data ranking, not an editorial pick.
