Our logo

The CareSearch logo is composed of the words Care and Search and highlights the connection between the clinician and patient/carer (“Care”) and we, the project, working to facilitate that care through evidence and through dissemination (“Search”).

The half circle that joins the words “care” and “search” represents the continual cycle of evidence creation through to application. Contact us to get high resolution copies of our logos.

Our centre icons

A series of icons have been designed to represent the different sectors CareSearch works within. The icons are designed to represent the following:

Community

Four half circles representing family, community, health professionals and CareSearch come together to support the patient.

Health Professionals

A stylised version of the DNA helix which represents not only people working directly with patients, but also researchers.

Evidence

The use of the eye symbol represents vigilance, and is associated with light, wisdom, and energy.

CareSearch Project

This flower symbol is an homage to the cross pollination of information required in good project management.
