DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT
In recognition that employees may become involved in a critical incident through their work, the Pacific Region of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) established a Critical Incident Stress (CIS) Peer Team Program in 1991. The goal of the program is to provide timely, effective assistance to employees involved in critical incidents, thereby preventing or mitigation symptoms of CIS and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) Program is based on and utilizes a modified Mitchell/ICISF Model.
Fisheries and Oceans has approximately 2400 employees throughout British Columbia and the Yukon. The CISM Peer Team consists of approximately 20-25 trained peers from across the regional and from various operational groups and one Program Manager. Peers serve on the team for a two-year timeframe and have the option to renew their commitment every two years. We are looking for 1 (one) external Mental Health Professional (MHP) to complete the team.
There are, on average, about 50 incidents in a year. Most of the responses are made by the Peer Team. Approximately 15-20% of the incidents require the services of a MHP. When the MHP is involved, it may be to provide a Critical Incident Stress Diffusing (CISD) or to provide support to a peer who is leading a defusing or a one-on-one intervention.
DURATION OF CONTRACT
The period of the Contract is from date of Contract to March 31, 2017 with the possibility of two (2) additional one (1) year periods.
