For a semi-private room, residents can expect to pay $4,307, which is notably higher than the averages for Union County at $3,730 and North Carolina as a whole at $3,584. This premium may be attributed to enhanced services and amenities available at The Little Flower.

While these costs may be above average for the area, they suggest a focus on providing exceptional living conditions that cater to the needs of residents seeking a nurturing environment.
