Design S1033A at a glance
A navy-bordered round with a Star of Life laid over a compass and a mountain range, stitched in navy, gold, light blue and red. Lettering carries a service name, an Emergency Medical Services line, a founding year and a division line. The compass gives the round a sense of direction — a natural fit for services that run long distances over rough ground.

About this mountain compass EMS round
Mountain and compass imagery tells people your crews work terrain, not just streets: long transports, trailheads, switchback roads and remote calls. This round keeps the Star of Life as the anchor and builds the landscape behind it, with light blue sky separating the peaks from the navy field. Gold and red give the compass points and the star their punch.
Customize the scene to your region: redraw the peaks to match a local skyline, add a river or tree line, or put your service and division names in the lettering — and order it as a full-color sleeve patch or a matching subdued version for packs. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Mountain compass EMS patch questions
Can the mountains be redrawn to match our local peaks?
Yes. Send a photo of your ridgeline or landmark and we redraw it behind the Star of Life at no art charge. The proof shows the new skyline before anything is produced.
Can the division line change for each station?
Yes. Keep the art and change only that line; all the station versions share one quote and price at the combined count.
Is there a subdued version for rescue packs?
Yes. Tan, gray or olive builds stitch well because the compass and peaks are bold shapes. Preview them in the markup tool before you request the quote.
What size works on a cap?
Around 3 inches. We scale the lettering on your proof so it stays readable on a cap front.
How do I mark up changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form — circle the mountains, pin notes on the lettering, switch colors — and your marked-up version attaches to the quote.
