BoosterBuddy 1.7 is now available!
Thanks to feedback from our app users and the generous support of Coast Capital Savings and the Victoria Hospitals Foundation, #BoosterBuddy is even better!
We have added new coping skills for Eating Disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Persistent Pain and Urges to Self Harm. We have also created a journal section to record general thoughts, celebrate personal effort, save favourite quotes and practice gratitude and self-compassion. Other updates include the ability to save quests for later, encouraging notes from your buddy each time you check in and more daily medication reminder slots.

Booster Buddy was created by Island Health in collaboration with teens and young adults with lived experience. This app was made possible thanks to the generous support of Coast Capital Savings and the Victoria Hospitals Foundation.
People living in Esquimalt and neighbouring communities will soon have better access to team-based everyday health care with planning for an urgent and primary care centre.
