About this winged caduceus cross shield
Here the medical symbol sits on a second, smaller shield bearing a cross, so the patch reads as a crest within a crest. The wings give the caduceus width, and the gold border frames everything in one warm accent against navy. With five lettering fields it carries more information than most paramedic designs, which suits services that want a unit title on the sleeve.
Order it as shown or change the details: put your service name and unit title in the lettering, set your real founding year, write your own motto, or trade the cross shield for a star of life backing. 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.

Winged caduceus paramedic patch questions
Can each unit get its own title line?
Yes. The unit title restitches per version, and one quote can carry several versions of the same art — all priced at the combined count.
Should we use a caduceus or a star of life?
Both appear on EMS insignia. The winged caduceus gives a classic medical look; the star of life with the rod of Asclepius is the EMS-specific symbol. We can stitch either on this shield.
Will five lettering lines fit on a 4-inch patch?
At 4 inches they fit with tight spacing; at 4.5 inches they read comfortably. Your proof shows the exact sizing so you can decide before production.
Can the wings stitch in metallic gold?
Yes. Metallic gold thread is available for the caduceus, the wings and the border, and it pairs well with a dress or ceremony run.
How do I show you our wording and color changes?
Mark them on the design with the markup tool in the quote form — circle the caduceus, pin a note on each lettering field, switch the colorway — and the marked-up version goes with your quote.
