The Dose Buddy

Empowering Families with Accessible Insulin Management

The Dose Buddy is an innovative web-based tool designed to assist parents in accurately calculating insulin dosages for their children. Our mission is to enhance diabetes management by providing:

  • User-friendly insulin dosage calculator

  • Multilingual support (English, Spanish, Haitian Creole, and Vietnamese)

  • Increased accessibility for diverse communities

By bridging language barriers, The Dose Buddy aims to improve healthcare outcomes and reduce disparities in diabetes care.

  • Switched to using Next.js and shadcn

    • allowing for improvements in user interface so the web application is more organized and smoother

  • Added Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, Portuguese, and Cape Verdean Creole

  • Added graphs and histories to help provide users with more insight into pediatric insulin trends

  • NOTE: version does not support pertinence (long term memory) yet and still needs authentication page (will work on these next)
