WHO WE ARE:

Victoria State Emergency Service (VICSES) is a volunteer-based emergency service. Our highly skilled and equipped Volunteers are trained comprehensively in a wide range of emergency environments. To minimise the impact of emergencies when they occur and strengthen the community’s capacity to recover swiftly and safely, VICSES focuses on working with communities and partners in building resilience to achieve more aware, informed and prepared communities.  We support them to understand their risk and the relevance of taking action before, during and after emergency events.

As the largest road rescue network in Australia we have specialist teams that provide a 24/7 response to road accident and trauma incidents. We assist Victoria Police in search and rescue operations, and play an important role in supporting the Country Fire Authority (CFA), Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV), Parks Victoria and the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) during major bushfire and emergency incidents.

 

ROLE SUMMARY: 

The Health and Wellbeing Coordinator role facilitates and supervises the delivery of the VICSES Health and Wellbeing program to members within SES with a team of Health and Wellbeing Assessors. This includes facilitating wellbeing sessions at the unit, problem solving, directing the team, managing set up and collecting feedback.

The health and wellbeing facilitator is a casual role with hours determined by Healthwatch session demand from VICSES units. Healthwatch sessions (working hours) are typically a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday evening, to accommodate for VICSES volunteers’ availability. Health and Wellbeing Facilitators average between two and four Healthwatch visits per month, but this can vary.
