Star of Life Medical Symbol - Emergency Services Icon #3392900 (License: Personal Use)

This high-resolution image displays the Star of Life, a six-pointed red star adopted by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 1973 as the official symbol for emergency medical services. At its center lies the Rod of Asclepius-a serpent-entwined staff representing healing and medicine-rendered in white for contrast against the bold red background. The design is standardized for use on ambulances, uniforms, signage, and digital interfaces to ensure rapid recognition during emergencies.

Commonly used on emergency vehicles, medical facilities, training materials, and health-related websites; it signals EMS presence and conveys urgency, professionalism, and medical authority.
