Star of Life Symbol - EMS Medical Emergency Icon #95647 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white line illustration depicts the Star of Life, a six-pointed star adopted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 1973 as the official symbol for EMS. At its center lies the Rod of Asclepius-a single serpent coiled around a staff-representing healing and medicine, distinct from the caduceus. The design is used on ambulances, uniforms, signage, and digital interfaces to denote emergency medical response.

Commonly used on ambulance vehicles, EMS websites, training materials, and public health signage; it signals immediate medical assistance and aligns with user intent to identify or learn about emergency healthcare symbols.
