Seeking Protection & Justice for Vulnerable Loved Ones

As our population gets older, more people will rely on nursing homes and other long-term care facilities to provide their health care. Like other medical professionals, nursing home staff members are expected to maintain a certain level of care to protect the people living in their facility. Sadly, abuse and nursing home injuries are not uncommon.

Nursing home injuries can occur because of failure to maintain the required level of care. This level of negligence can lead to bedsores, also known as pressure sores or decubitus ulcers, malnutrition, falls and broken bones, and abuse. In many cases, negligence occurs as a result of inadequate training, lack of supervision, inadequate staffing, or improper hiring practices.

If you or a loved one has been the victim of nursing home injuries, or have been injured by negligent conduct in a nursing home, it is important to act quickly to protect your rights.

Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect

Abuse and neglect can be both physical and mental. Nursing home abuse and neglect can be found in a number of areas:

  • Improper nutrition and hydration
  • Poor personal hygiene
  • Medication errors
  • Inadequate fall protection
  • Call button not in reach or not working
  • Turning orders for bed-bound residents not followed
  • Leaving a resident in soiled garments for extended periods of time
  • Physical striking of a resident
  • Inappropriate restraint of a resident
  • Verbal abuse
  • Ignoring a complaint or punishing a resident for making a complaint
  • Withholding medical care
  • Sexual assault or rape of a resident
  • Taking money or other personal property

  • "We give Nick Deets & Hovde Dassow + Deets our highest recommendation."
    We were facing a potential medical malpractice claim and didn't know what path to follow. With great legal guidance, we were referred to Nick Deets of Hovde Dassow + Deets. From our very first meeting with Mr. Deets, we felt comfortable knowing that he and his competent staff were leading us through this journey. Nick kept us informed every step of the way, telling us what we needed to know when we needed to know it. He worked diligently and professionally on our behalf and in the end, we were blessed with a great result and settlement. We will be forever grateful to Nick for making our lives a little easier. We are thankful for such a great advocate. We give Nick and his law firm of Hovde Dassow + Deets our highest recommendation.

  • "Highly recommend Mr. Deets & would suggest that you consult with him first!"
    I have had 2 fairly significant legal issues in the past few years and Nick Deets has represented me and a family member very professionally and thoroughly. Sometimes as a client we have preconceived feelings about our legal issues but Mr. Deets helped us sort through the emotions versus the legal issues and in the first case, he helped my family member out tremendously from a legal perspective and we had great results from his efforts. Not only did Mr. Deets give us great legal counsel and we had great outcomes, he personally assisted our family members receiving additional assistance in dealing with a very sensitive matter. Mr. Deets is a wonderful communicator but as a good lawyer must, he has to and must be frank with you about your legal case. If you want a great lawyer that is going to help you legally and not waste your time by telling you what you want to hear, then this law firm is the one you should select.

    The second case that Mr. Deets assisted me within a personal injury case for me. Because of his reputation and our great relationship, I asked him for assistance with a personal injury case for myself. Mr. Deets is co-counsel on an out-of-state issue and because of his reputation, he referred me to a highly respected and successful attorney out of state. The case has yet to settle but once again Mr. Deets provided a great recommendation to me and he has helped me come to grips with the reality of my case and has been very helpful to me by answering questions I didn’t feel confident about asking my current attorney. Fortunately for me, they both concurred on my potential outcome and I feel my case is going to have a positive outcome for me.

    The other thing I like about this firm is that if they cannot help you or feel someone else can represent you in a more favorable manner then they will refer you to another firm. I like and highly recommend Mr. Deets and would suggest that you consult with him before making a final decision on the attorney you want to represent you.

  • "Words can not express how exceptional Rick Hovde and Kelly Faulk are in the Field of Medical Malpractice"
    Words can not express how exceptional Rick Hovde and Kelly Faulk are in the field of Medical Malpractice. I had a back surgery that left me with a permanent disability. I contacted a personal injury law firm who recommended Rick Hovde of Hovde Dassow + Deets. Thank God for thier recommendation. In my opinion Rick Hovde and his assistant Kelly Faulk are the best in the field of Medical Malpractice. Rick and Kelly helped me every step of the way through a difficult at best process from start to finish. Rick and Kelly helped keep me on track and we not only won the case Rick was able to get the maximum settlement allowed by Indiana State Law. I would highly recommend Rick Hovde to anyone. He gets a five star plus rating from me. Bob D.
