Vancouver, British Columbia (March 12th, 2024) —   Lifeguard Digital Health .

Lifeguard Digital Health announced today the renewal of its software services agreement with the British Columbia Construction Industry Rehabilitation Program (CIRP) for CIRP’s BuildStrong App. CIRP previously contracted Lifeguard to develop mobile application software for providing drug overdose prevention, monitoring, and on-demand access to mental health and substance abuse supports to construction industry unions, associations, and alliances.
