May 21, 2025- Every EMS professional recognizes it instantly: the six-pointed Star of Life. More than just a symbol, it embodies the core principles and unwavering dedication of EMS. But what does this iconic emblem truly mean to the individuals who live and breathe EMS every day?
This EMS Week, Henry Schein Medical EMS interviewed EMS professionals from various settings – urban, rural, volunteer – to uncover their unique perspectives on each of the star’s vital points. You can find the videos on Henry Schein’s LinkedIn page here, as they spotlight each point of the Star of Life throughout the week.
