<\/i>The Virginia Department of Health (VDH), Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS)\u00a0recently\u00a0launched\u00a0its new logo to reflect\u00a0a\u00a0unified\u00a0identity\u00a0and\u00a0strengthened\u00a0commitment to Virginia\u2019s EMS\u00a0providers, system\u00a0partners\u00a0and the communities they serve.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The refreshed logo\u00a0honors\u00a0OEMS\u2019\u00a0core values\u00a0and responsibility\u00a0to\u00a0ensure\u00a0quality\u00a0prehospital care to all people in\u00a0Virginia, while\u00a0aligning with VDH\u2019s\u00a0main\u00a0brand identity\u00a0and vision. The new OEMS logo also highlights\u00a0the future of EMS in Virginia,\u00a0as it moves toward a more accountable\u00a0and\u00a0sustainable\u00a0office and EMS system.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A lot of thought and care went into the symbolism of this logo, which is steeped in EMS tradition, including the Star of Life and the Rod of Asclepius \u2013 all images that are synonymous with the EMS profession and the healthcare field. The logo also highlights the state of Virginia to illustrate inclusiveness and care for all people in the commonwealth.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

OEMS will begin transitioning to the new logo\u00a0immediately,\u00a0along with\u00a0the seven designated\u00a0OEMS regions.\u00a0However,\u00a0full\u00a0implementation\u00a0is\u00a0expected\u00a0to take several months, as\u00a0we\u00a0phase\u00a0out\u00a0our legacy logo during this\u00a0time.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Brand Colors<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The colors of the new Virginia Office of EMS (OEMS) logo:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The navy blue color symbolizes authority and trust. It’s the traditional EMS uniform color. You can find this color on almost every public safety uniform in the nation. It is also part of the official navy blue branding for the Virginia Department of Health (VDH).<\/li>\n
  • The silver color that is visible around the Star of Life and in the Rod of Asclepius symbolizes professionalism and polish. It represents the professionalism of our EMS providers, and like polishing silverware, when it starts to show some signs of age or tarnishing, we polish it, we make it better. We make it shiny and new and bright. In EMS, this means everything from the training that we do, the policies that we enact, the procedures that we advance, or the systems that we design.<\/li>\n
  • The gold color indicates a bright future, aiming for excellence and quality. Gold is often associated with gold medal winners, champions, and the sunrise, which points to a bright, positive, and progressive drive for the future. It indicates ambition and possibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The Elements of the Logo<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Star of Life<\/strong> – The star of life is the official symbol of EMS. This is the central focus of OEMS, and everything that the OEMS does is for the EMS system.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Virginia State Map<\/strong> – The next element is the state of Virginia\u2019s map silhouette. This represents all people in Virginia. It represents that all people in Virginia rely on the EMS system in their time of need. The map is embedded within the star of life, because EMS is designed to be the protector and savior of all Virginians in their time of need.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    The Rod of Asclepius<\/strong> (the snake and staff) – This overlays the Virginia map to show the State is enveloped within the EMS system.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Seven Rays<\/strong><\/strong>– The seven rays represent the seven EMS regions. This is a core part of the Virginia EMS system and how we will continue to operate in the future. Additionally, OEMS will soon determine the seven organizational values guiding the culture of OEMS, so the rays will hold a double meaning.<\/p>\n

    The Virginia EMS system has transitioned to seven EMS regions (from the original 11), and they work hand in hand with OEMS to ensure that all of our goals and objectives meet our state EMS plan and that they’re achieved.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Radiating Arc<\/strong> – There’s a radiating arc from the center and through the rays. This indicates hope for the future journey ahead, maneuvering future direction and building momentum. The arc mimics the rising sun which indicates a bright future. The radiating pattern represents a centralized plan, unity and collaboration. It spreads from the center of the system and reaches all corners of Virginia. This is how we get forward momentum and where the sky is truly the limit.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Horizon<\/strong> – The half circle horizon indicates visualizing the path ahead and the future of Virginia EMS. It represents the future journey starting from the present. And like the horizon line that we see every day, we can see it, but it’s not quite clear. It’s not quite defined, but we know it’s there and we’re walking towards it. The star of life is centered on the horizon, with all points starting in that center space and moving forward.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Emblem<\/strong> – The circle design was purposeful. Circles are continual. They never end. It indicates unity, equity and collaboration across the system. The symbolism of equity because there are no sides and there are no corners, which means we treat everyone with equal importance.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Concentric Circles<\/strong> – There are four concentric circle borders from the inside border to the outside border. These indicate the patient and the provider, agency and locality, the state, and then the nation. Starting from the inside main circle body, this symbolizes the patient that relies upon the EMS system and is the center of why we exist as organizations within this system.<\/p>\n

    The first circle border outside of that symbolizes the providers, agencies and localities, that take care of that patient and who are closest to the patient\u2019s needs. The next layer is the state layer. That’s the VDH and OEMS layer and we’re here to support you. We are here to help you, and we’re here to make sure that you don’t get in your own way. And lastly, just like all important healthcare systems, we are part of a much bigger national system. The national system helps us to drive the system forward, because we’re all very busy doing what we do that sometimes we lose the 10,000 foot view of the changes occurring within the EMS profession.<\/p>\n

    Additional Logo Components<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Another key component is that VDH and OEMS are a unified government health care system. EMS is a medical care system that\u2019s just in the prehospital setting. Regardless of the service delivery model, the focus is on the patient and ensuring that they get the highest level of quality care, regardless of where they are in the State.<\/p>\n

    OEMS has taken this last year and will continue throughout the coming years to integrate within VDH and to be in alignment with the national vision of EMS, as outlined in the EMS Agenda for the Future 2050. This document outlines EMS moving from a reactionary industry where someone has experienced an event and then they call for help to a proactive industry where we try to prevent the 911 call from happening to start with through patient support and education.<\/p>\n

    The Seven EMS Regions<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    The seven EMS regions have their own lockup logo based off the core OEMS design, because they are doing work on behalf of the State office. This is one unified State system, therefore the regions will now be officially known and referred to as OEMS regions (OEMS Region 1, OEMS Region 2, etc.) instead of by the 501c3 contracting entity granted the designation for the contract cycle.<\/p>\n

    These regional partners are doing the important work on behalf of the State EMS Office, and it can’t be stressed enough how important that is. We rely on our regional partners for their expertise and assurance that local needs are being met while we work together to address equity and quality across all regions. The regional work has already started. We’ve already started taking approaches with our communication and our current collaborations to build this new unified future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
