Seasonality May Be Especially Important This Year! April 8, 2011 Being Street SmartSy HardingSeasonality May Be Especially Important This Year! April 8, 2011.

Generally, the EMS companies contact Embroidered Patches Plus looking for a custom patch to place on their uniform sleeves. The patches are designed to represent who they are and what they do.Originality in a Shared PurposeMost EMS companies' patches share one common symbol, the Star of Life. This is the symbol that most of us recognize or refer to as the "medical" symbol. The use of this emblem is one design feature that few, if any, EMS companies can avoid.However, just because these companies share the universally recognized logo does not mean that the other elements within their custom patches cannot be truly unique. For example, the custom EMS patch displayed here utilizes the star of life symbol, but is markedly unique because of how the colors were used in the embroidered patch design.A solid white star sets the background for a golden rod with a blue snake wrapped around it.
