Three medical symbols: black-and-white caduceus, colored caduceus, and blue Star of Life with rod and serpents.

About this clipart

The image displays three iconic symbols associated with medicine and emergency response: the caduceus (winged staff with two entwined snakes, historically linked to Hermes), the Rod of Asclepius (single snake on a staff, representing healing), and the Star of Life (blue six-pointed star with the Rod of Asclepius at its center, adopted by EMS). While the caduceus is frequently-but incorrectly-used in U.S. healthcare branding, the Rod of Asclepius is the historically accurate emblem of medicine; the Star of Life signifies emergency medical services globally.
This image is used on educational or informational health websites to clarify symbolism in medical practice, correct common misconceptions, and support content about healthcare branding, history, or EMS training. It serves users seeking accurate visual references for academic, professional, or design purposes.
