Marquis Vermont Hills is a 73-bed skilled nursing facility in Portland, Oregon, providing post-hospital rehabilitation and long-term care, along with memory care, hospice, and respite services. The facility is operated by Marquis Companies I, Inc. and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
CMS rates Marquis Vermont Hills at 5 stars overall — 63.9% above the Oregon average — with above-average scores across all sub-categories. Nursing hours average 5 hours and 18 minutes per resident per day, slightly above the Oregon average of 5 hours and 12 minutes, reflecting consistent staffing at a facility where many residents require skilled, post-acute care. The facility’s occupancy rate is 47%, well below the state average of 65.7%, which means rooms are currently available.
Over the past six years, state inspectors conducted 10 inspections and recorded 18 total citations — 1.8 per inspection compared with Oregon’s average of 4.4, a 59% better rate. The facility has no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, license actions, or substantiated complaints in the record. The two most recent inspections in June and September 2025 were deficiency-free.
On-site services include wound and pulmonary care, intravenous therapy, a nurse practitioner, and a therapeutic recreation program. Social work counseling, nutritional planning, dental and podiatric services, and a monthly pharmaceutical review round out the clinical offering.
Marquis Vermont Hills is best suited for seniors stepping down from a hospital stay or residents seeking long-term skilled nursing care in southwest Portland, with current availability for new admissions.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 41m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 41m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 1h 2m per day | ▲ 14% State avg: 54m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 3h 23m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 3h 22m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 4h 28m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 4h 23m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 7m per day | ▲ 38% State avg: 5m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 14m per day | ▼ 47% State avg: 26m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
