Description
This embroidered patch features the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue insignia, the patch of MDFR, the fire and rescue department serving Miami-Dade County, Florida. It is built as a radiant, scalloped medallion – a red field with a gold sunburst border of radiating points – carrying the Miami-Dade County seal at its center and the words FIRE, DEPT., SAFETY, and RESCUE around the rim.
Center: The heart of the patch is a circular medallion bearing the Miami-Dade County seal. A black outer ring is lettered MIAMI-DADE arched across the top, COUNTY in a white band across the middle, and FLORIDA arched across the bottom. Inside, the county seal scene shows a rising sun with rays over water, a sailing ship, a palm tree, a bird in flight, and a green landscape, with a laurel branch curving across the base.
Rim Lettering: FIRE arches across the top arm and DEPT. across the bottom arm in gold block letters, while SAFETY runs vertically down the left side and RESCUE down the right side, naming the department’s fire, safety, and rescue mission around the central seal.
Shape & Base: Rather than a shield or a plain cross, the patch is a radiant scalloped medallion – a red ground ringed by a gold sunburst of repeating points and fine radiating lines. The bold red and gold give the badge a strong, ceremonial look, with the multicolor county seal as the bright focal point at the center.
Color & Seal Detail: The red field and gold sunburst frame a full-color county seal – blue water and sky, a yellow sun, a green palm and landscape, and the black lettered ring. The combination makes the patch read as both a fire-service badge and a civic county emblem.
Embroidery Quality: Full-coverage stitching with high stitch density holds the fine detail of the sunburst border, the Miami-Dade County seal with its sun, ship, palm, and laurel, and the FIRE, DEPT., SAFETY, and RESCUE lettering with sharp, even edges and a durable surface that stands up to daily uniform wear and laundering.
This is one of a series of fire department patches in the gallery.

🛡 Authorized Purchase & Credential Verification
Patches bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers must provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. We do not sell agency-named patches for personal use.
Custom and fictional designs — for example, a made-up department like “Town of Western Hope Police” — are welcome, as are designs where you change the agency or department name to your own.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is shown on the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue patch?
The patch is a red-and-gold radiant scalloped medallion. FIRE arches across the top and DEPT. across the bottom, with SAFETY down the left side and RESCUE down the right, all in gold. At the center is the Miami-Dade County seal: a black ring lettered MIAMI-DADE, COUNTY, and FLORIDA around a scene with a rising sun, a sailing ship, a palm tree, a bird, and a laurel branch. Owl Badges reproduces it as an embroidered patch.
What is in the county seal at the center of the patch?
The central seal is the Great Seal of Miami-Dade County, Florida. It shows a rising sun with rays over water, a sailing ship, a tall palm tree, a bird in flight, and a green landscape, with a laurel branch across the base, ringed by MIAMI-DADE COUNTY FLORIDA lettering. We reproduce the sun, ship, palm, bird, and laurel in detailed stitching so the seal stays clear at patch size.
What do FIRE, DEPT., SAFETY, and RESCUE mean on the patch?
The four words around the rim name the mission of Miami-Dade Fire Rescue: fire suppression, the department itself, public safety, and rescue and EMS response. FIRE and DEPT. sit on the top and bottom arms, with SAFETY and RESCUE running up the sides, framing the county seal. We reproduce each word exactly as positioned on the original.
Why is this patch shaped like a sunburst badge?
Instead of a shield or a plain cross, the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue patch is a radiant scalloped medallion with a gold sunburst border of repeating points around a red field. The shape gives it a ceremonial, badge-like look that stands apart from standard shoulder patches. We can cut and embroider this scalloped sunburst outline, or adapt it to another shape for a custom design.
Can you make a custom county fire and rescue patch like this?
Yes. A radiant medallion with a county seal at the center and FIRE, SAFETY, and RESCUE lettering around the rim is a striking civic fire-service layout, and we can adapt it for your own department - your county seal or emblem, your department wording, your colors, and your border style. A free proof is provided before production so you can confirm every detail.
Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue name on it?
Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as Miami-Dade Fire Rescue are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Fire-service and public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or fictional department designs, and patches renamed to your own department, are welcome without that step.
