Our Hospital Logo Comes to Life

The symbol of San Antonio Regional Hospital is a fleur-de-lis, a “simple, life-affirming form of a growing plant, with its connotation of biological optimism which seems to strike a tenor consonant with the life-mending role the hospital plays in the community” stated The Daily Report on May 24, 1964, when the symbol was introduced at the opening of the new three-story patient tower. 

The sturdy central stem of the symbol represents our patients and their return to restored vitality. The leaves, focused on the central stem, symbolize the elements of the hospital’s structure – trustees, medical staff, and employees. The complete symbol recalls the cooperative efforts needed to accomplish the hospital’s primary goal of securing the patient’s well-being.
