About this laurel and Asclepius medic shield
Laurel has marked honor and achievement since antiquity, and here it lends the star of life a dignified, almost ceremonial weight. The wings broaden the shield so it reads as an insignia rather than a logo, and the staff of Asclepius keeps the medical symbol traditional. Maroon is an uncommon EMS accent, which helps the patch stand apart from neighboring services in navy and red.
Divisions often customize it by rewording the four lines, recoloring the maroon to their department color, or adding a unit number to the lettering. 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.
