The city of Marshfield has a population of nearly 7000; seniors aged 62 and older comprise 18.3 percent. To manage the assisted living needs of those seniors, Marshfield has four facilities. The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services licenses assisted living facilities, issuing the license and determining regulations for facilities in Marshfield.
