Marquis Autumn Hills Residential Memory Care sits in Portland, Oregon, on SW Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy, and it's designed for seniors with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia who need more medical help after illness, surgery, or a hospital stay, including those who can't walk on their own. The building isn't part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community and holds up to 22 people in a secure setting, with rooms that come private or semi-private, already furnished for comfort. The focus stays on safety, with color-coordinated walls that help with orientation, and a robust 24-hour supervision and call system, plus an alert system if a resident leaves the secure area. Trained staff help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, moving, and managing medications, and they pay special attention to each person's regular habits and health, which makes daily routines feel safer and more familiar.
Residents get to join in activities set up by the community, like music therapy with classical radio, pet visits from dogs, art projects in a dedicated room, movie nights, and resident-run get-togethers all through the week, which keep people engaged and less lonely. Meal services happen any time during the day in a shared dining room, serving foods seniors enjoy, like Cream of Wheat, fruit, and hot coffee, and special diets get attention when needed. There's a small garden, pretty walking paths, and a community lounge, so folks can get outside, stay active, or sit quietly with others. The facility has its own barber and salon, a well-stocked library, cable TV, Wi-Fi, telephones in rooms, and comfortable spots for family visits-families are welcome to stop by and share meals or join activities with their loved ones. Housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and linens are taken care of. The team checks in on residents' health daily, and they work closely alongside families to keep routines gentle and comforting.
They accept both Medicaid and Medicare, which makes care more affordable for many people. Marquis Autumn Hills has a 4-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and shows an 8.4 out of 10 community rating, ranking as the 25th highest in the city. The staff get special training to help people with memory loss and know how to give gentle reminders or help manage confusion. The grounds have areas for walking and gardens to enjoy, with spaces set aside for relaxing or joining in group events. This isn't a flashy place, but it keeps things warm and consistent, valuing person-centered care so everyone feels looked after and safe. Marquis Autumn Hills belongs to the Marquis Companies group and connects with Oregon Care Careers, offering jobs and training in elder care. You can find more information about their services on the Marquis Companies website or through A Place For Mom's senior living advisors.
