Porthaven Post Acute

Overview of Porthaven Post Acute

Porthaven Post Acute is a 99-bed post-acute skilled nursing and memory care facility at 5330 NE Prescott Street, Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon, 5.6 miles from downtown. Operated by Porthaven SNF Healthcare, LLC, the community provides 24-hour skilled nursing with rehabilitation, memory care, therapy and assessment services six to seven days weekly, case management, discharge planning, and specialized programs including joint replacement and orthopedic rehabilitation, stroke rehabilitation, cardiac rehabilitation with CHF protocol, fall prevention, pulmonary care, post-operative care, pain management, infusion therapy, vascular wound management, renal disease services, tracheostomy care, cancer recovery, bariatric care, LVAD support, and palliative and hospice care. The facility holds a 4-Star Quality Measures Medicare Rating.

The regulatory record documents critical and escalating failures in resident safety, care quality, and fundamental operational systems. Over two years, Porthaven logged 36 deficiencies, averaging 18 annually, 169 percent above Oregon’s 6.7-deficiency benchmark.

An April 8, 2024, focused infection control survey identified one COVID-19 NHSN reporting deficiency with potential for more than minimal harm. A May 13, 2024, complaint investigation documented four deficiencies in failure to maintain adequate staffing to meet resident care needs timely. Multiple residents reported delays and lack of assistance. Staff reported chronic understaffing and high workload.

An August 30, 2024, complaint investigation revealed four deficiencies, the most serious being failure to protect a resident from sexual abuse by another resident, accompanied by failures in care planning, grievance follow-up, discharge notification, bed hold policy, assessment accuracy, ADL care, quality of care, fall prevention, respiratory care, therapy services, hospice coordination, infection control, hand hygiene, and nurse call systems. An April 9, 2025, complaint investigation cited five deficiencies spanning wound assessment documentation, infection control, Ombudsman notification, bed hold policy, resident assessment accuracy, antibiotic treatment timeliness, nail care provision, fall prevention, nurse call system function, physical therapist employment, hospice coordination, and hand hygiene and PPE protocols. An April 16, 2025, complaint investigation documented four deficiencies including failure to protect a resident from physical abuse by another resident resulting in injury and prolonged pain, infection control failures, failure to employ physical therapist, and care planning and abuse prevention deficiencies. An August 7, 2025, complaint investigation identified four deficiencies: inappropriate discharge of a resident to a home with no running water, rats, and no heat; failure to include primary physician in discharge planning.

The resident subsequently required placement in another skilled facility. An October 13, 2025, complaint investigation found no deficiencies. A December 8, 2025, complaint investigation revealed ten deficiencies in resident and family grievance response, environmental safety and comfort, activities programming, quality of care, mobility maintenance, accident hazard supervision, food sanitation, and administrative rules.

The cumulative pattern is striking: two resident-on-resident abuse incidents (sexual abuse August 2024, physical abuse April 2025) with documented injury; chronic staffing inadequacy resulting in unmet resident needs and delayed response times; unsafe discharge to uninhabitable housing; widespread infection control violations including hand hygiene and PPE protocol failures; and systemic failures in care planning, documentation, assessment accuracy, and safety systems.

The 4-Star Quality Measures Medicare Rating listed in facility data contrasts sharply with this per-inspection record and requires direct clarification from administrators regarding assessment basis and current corrective status.

The facility provides post-acute and skilled nursing care with rehabilitation, memory care, and specialized services. Private pay is required; Medicaid and Medicare are not accepted.

Families must not proceed with placement without obtaining complete incident reports from the August 2024 sexual abuse, April 2025 physical abuse, and August 2025 unsafe discharge cases; reviewing comprehensive corrective action documentation; speaking directly with current residents or families; and requesting independent verification of corrective measure implementation from facility administrators and state licensing authorities.
