Greg has been a driving force in IHM governance and his dedication and hard work are much appreciated.

Best wishes Greg, for a well deserved enjoyable upcoming retirement.

2008 IHM Educational Conference

Be The Bridge - 2008 IHM Conference

By Lola Dudley, FIHM

S

taff of Lambton County formed the 2008 IHM Conference Committee early in 2007 so members of the Committee could attend the 2007 Conference and build on Peterborough’s successes. Lee Campbell was the Board representative to the Committee.

The 2008 Conference theme was ‘Building Bridges’ and for the first time provided table top displays by seven sponsors. Sponsors not only provided information on their materials or services but several provided door prizes, including an air compressor and television, as well.

Although the Committee’s attempts to have Mike Holmes as the keynote speaker were unsuccessful the Committee pulled together a number of remarkable speakers. Lambton took advantage of their local talent to present sessions on Bridges Out of Poverty, Public Speaking, Preventive Maintenance, Mental Illness Awareness and Maintaining a Work/Life Balance. In total there were ten different sessions throughout the two days offering something for everyone.

The pre-conference workshop was well attended and very informative for anyone planning a case before the Landlord Tenant Board. Participants spent a day with Harry Fine and learned “How to Present at Landlord and Tenant Board Hearings”. All came from the session feeling well equipped to present before the Board.

IHM News • Summer 2008

The closing keynote presentation by Blair Henry was extremely motivational and really got delegates up and moving!

Delegates left the 2008 Conference energized and motivated after listening to Blair Henry’s presentation “Use the Whole Buffalo”. Blair engaged the audience to the very end encouraging participants to take ownership of their lives and “skid into the grave having lived life to the maximum”.

Of course it would not be a true IHM experience without entertainment and networking which are always important features of the conference. Wednesday evening, after the traditional social hour, there was an off-site dinner at “On the Front”. This restaurant is on the 14th floor overlooking the St. Clair River and the twin Bluewater Bridges connecting Canada to the United States. Participants were rewarded with a spectacular sunset while listening to the Frank Stancic Jazz Band.

Many delegates took advantage of the Networking Room provided by

Coinamatic and were entertained at the Awards Banquet with a Murder Mystery dinner followed by our favourite D.J. – Jeff Grant.

A highlight of the 2008 Conference for me was the presentation of recognition awards to IHM Members. Many members were recognized for their years of service, volunteer work and dedication.

The presentation to Greg Grange was a special favourite of mine. Greg turning the Chain of Office over to the new President, Deborah Filice was truly a momentous occasion.

It was a pleasure to host the IHM Annual Educational Conference and to welcome many first-time visitors to beautiful Bluewaterland. I would also like to thank the organizing committee, IHM Office Staff and Lee Campbell, Board representative who made the 2008 conference a success.

Indoor Slips & Falls: The Hidden Hazards

By Barb Szychta, Frank Cowan Company

I

ndoor slips and falls continue to occur. For some it’s an embarrassing moment but for others it’s a life changing experience. While our average cost to settle a claim is $19,000, the individual cost to settle can be in the millions. That’s a lot of money to pay towards something that can be prevented through good housekeeping and a comprehensive maintenance program.

• •

• •

Why do people slip and fall?

A leading cause of indoor slips and falls is a slippery floor surface. Other causes are mats that are frayed and/or curled up, worn linoleum, cluttered entrance, walkways and stairwells, debris on floor surfaces and stairs and poor or insufficient lighting in entryways, walkways and stairwells.

• • •

• •

The Duty of Care The law (Statutory and/or Common Law) imposes a duty of care upon owners of public buildings to maintain their premises in a reasonable state so that persons entering their facilities are reasonably safe.

The Reasonable Person Standard A reasonable duty of care can be met by adopting and following good housekeeping and maintenance practices.

Maintaining logs and regularly documenting inspections and work performed will support the duty of care taken to prevent slip and falls.

Good Housekeeping and Maintenance Practices • Maintain a regular floor inspection schedule and inspect more

frequently during inclement weather.

Clean spills immediately when notified or you first become aware.

Mop all wet areas immediately and continually when the weather dictates.

Mark wet areas to warn visitors that the area is wet and slippery.

Position the markings in such a way that visitors will see them but not trip over them.

Sweep up debris immediately.

Keep walkways, entrances and stairwells free of obstacles and clutter.

Make sure floor tiles and staircases are in a good state of repair and not trip hazards.

Keep all entrances, walkways and stairwells well lit.

Place mats in high risk areas, such as entrances and walk surfaces that lead from the shower to the change area.

Rugs that are worn, frayed and curled up must be replaced immediately.

Include light bulbs and stairwells in your regular inspection protocol.

Instruct workmen to cordon off their work areas from the public walkways. Remind them that this is a public building and not a construction site.

Consider the following • Is your slip resistant floor still slip resistant?

• Do the floor cleaning products make it slippery and unsafe? Do they interfere with any slip resistant coatings?

• Should the floors be treated with a slip resistant coating?

• Are inspection and maintenance logs

kept up to date?

• Is each inspection and floor maintenance procedure recorded including the date and time?

• Where are the logs kept?

• How long are they kept?

Preventable not Avoidable Slips and falls inside buildings are preventable but not always avoidable.

There will always be those visitors who are in a hurry, distracted and/or on their cell phones. There will always be those who choose fashionable footwear over appropriate shoes. So falls will occur and actions will be launched for injuries sustained. But as the reasonable standard applies to the building owner it also applies to visitors.

We have been successful in defending actions against our building owners when they have been able to prove, through documentary evidence, that their premises were maintained in a reasonable state so persons entering their facilities were reasonably safe. The plaintiff doesn’t always win.

Life Long Learning... Value the Experience

By Deborah Filice, AIHM, R.S.S.W

T

hroughout an individual’s professional career, the opportunity may arise to take on a new role and the decision to embrace that opportunity can change our lives forever. A number of years ago, one of those moments arose for me, when a good friend and IHM colleague asked me to consider a part-time instructor’s position at Humber College.

Now, if you have ever felt that you just might of missed your ‘calling’ and then along comes an opportunity – that was the feeling of the moment for me.

WOW!!!

The IHM Property & Building Administration course provides a general overview of the Property Manager’s scope of work and it is recommended as the first core course in the certificate program. That implies that many students have limited and/or no background in the property management field and may be taking the class in order to determine if it is the right career choice for them. As an instructor, it implies a huge responsibility in finding the balance between describing the excitement of housing work and imparting a true picture of the many challenges it presents as a service industry.

I consider it a great privilege to be a teacher. Although sometimes it may feel like a challenge when grading thirtyplus assignments, conducting research for up-to-date course material and committing time to prepare for lectures…

10

Students at Humber College, Fall 2007 Semester

teaching is a privilege. It is a great privilege to be able to participate in the shaping of minds, facilitate thinking and discussion, and especially to help people accomplish their personal goals.

Part of learning is also developing new networks with peers and the classroom presents this opportunity to build a professional support system.

When my students succeed, I succeed.

And so I take great pride in offering my students the knowledge that I have gained throughout my years of experience and learning in the housing industry. I enjoy the personal interaction with students because I also benefit from the opportunity to develop my communication and interpersonal skills. I enjoy facilitating discussion and in turn being challenged by inquisitive questions that

force me to review the current literature, call upon my own network system and continuously hone my skills.

So as much as I am a teacher, I am also a student. In fact, I don’t think you can be an effective teacher without first making a commitment to life-long learning.

In fact, isn’t this true in the workplace as well? Each of us has knowledge that we can share with others. Whether it is a great letter that you have crafted, a shortcut in a process, the concept of a new form, a new housing policy or an innovative idea. This is knowledge that should be shared, and each of us reaps the privilege of becoming the teacher.

Having instructed within an organized classroom setting and via distance learning programs, I’ve developed a true

IHM News • Summer 2008

appreciation for the unique opportunities and challenges that each of these methods of teaching entails. While the classroom setting offers a great environment for generating discussion and debating points, I can’t deny the appeal of being able to submit assignments while sitting in the comfort of one’s own home and working through a course program on one’s own schedule. The instructors of the IHM distance learning program are all accredited members with IHM and are clearly demonstrating commitment to the profession in guiding students through the course material and sharing their own personal housing knowledge along the way. Remember that this type of learning environment demands commitment and self discipline in order to complete the course within the six month timeframe.

So whether you are the instructor or the student, value the experience, keep sharing your knowledge and always consider it a true privilege.

Commentary

A Commentary on Commentaries!

I

had a chance recently to scan various articles I had written over the past six years.

Throughout there was always an underlying theme of succession planning and planning for retirement.

One such article was written in the Spring of 2004 entitled the Upside of Downsizing – Moving to Apartment Life. Little did I think that my wife of thirty years and I would be living this article.

As we prepare for my retirement, we did indeed move, not to an apartment but to a smaller house with a few stairs and a yard the size of a postage stamp. I no longer needed that John Deere to mow an acre of grass! An electric lawnmower is now in the garage alongside my turf-covered golf clubs which I intend to use subject to a few refresher golf lessons.

Attention Accredited Members!!

The Institute of Housing Management

NEEDS YOU! Due to recent growth in the number of student members taking our Certificate in Property Management courses, the Institute requires Accredited members in good standing to proctor exams for Distance Learning students located throughout the Province.

Acting as a Proctor would involve negotiating with the student a convenient time to write a three hour exam in a quiet place in your offices/facilities. You would be responsible for providing the exam at start time, signing the exam as proctor at the end of the three hours, and then returning the documents to the Instructor directly for grading.

Before we moved, we donated many boxes that had not been unpacked in the last move to the local Good Will where all that stuff is now put to good use.

This is a great opportunity to give back to the industry through the Institute and at the same time help to ensure a well-trained pool of individuals to fill the evergrowing need for Accredited Property Managers.

One last thing I must mention, our retirement home is big enough for our children and soon to be grandchild (and Gordon the big dog) to stay for the weekend and those holiday visits but not big enough for all to move home.

If you would be interested, please fill in the following information and submit it to the IHM Office:

So, all in all, retirement at least from the 9-5 ritual looks pretty good in about 14 pay periods from now.

❐ Yes, I would like to volunteer as a Proctor

My volunteer work with IHM will continue for some time so you can expect to be hearing from me in my new capacity as Public Relations Officer. I’m not ready to be a distant memory with IHM – not just yet.
