If your facility is a fully accredited member, you’re in luck! You can easily download the logo for AASM Accredited Facility Members right from your member account page under the Membership Documents tab.
Authorized Use
To use the logo, your facility must be an active, fully accredited member with a signed trademark agreement. This logo can be featured on various promotional materials like stationery, websites, and more to showcase your accreditation status.
If you have custom needs, such as signage, make sure to submit a draft design to the AASM membership department for approval.
Unauthorized Use
It’s important to note that the logo cannot be used by:
- Facilities that are accredited but not members
- Provisionally accredited facilities
- Facilities awaiting accreditation or membership
- Individual AASM members
Additionally, the logo shouldn’t be used to imply endorsement by the AASM or to mislead others about its origins. If your facility is associated with an organization, you must clarify that your facility is the accredited member. In cases where a facility has multiple locations, only the fully accredited sites can display the logo clearly indicating their status.
If your membership or accreditation with the AASM ends, you must stop using the logo immediately on all materials.
Proper Logo Usage
Here are some guidelines for using the logo correctly:
- Do not crop or skew the logo: The logo has three components—a symbol, trademark symbol, and the words “Accredited Facility Member.” These elements should always stay together and remain unaltered.
- Keep the size readable: Ensure that the logo is displayed large enough for all elements to be legible, and maintain its original proportions when resizing.
- Use designated colors: The logo should only appear in the specified colors—black or white.
- Avoid clutter: Make sure the logo is isolated from other graphic elements and never place it on a busy background that could obscure its clarity.
Violating these guidelines can lead to serious consequences, including potential fines and loss of accreditation.
