An ambulance is a vehicle used to transport the sick or injured to a hospital or other medical facility. Ambulances are typically equipped with medical equipment and supplies, and are staffed by trained medical personnel.
There are many different types of ambulances, including basic life support (BLS) ambulances, advanced life support (ALS) ambulances, and critical care transport (CCT) ambulances. BLS ambulances are the most basic type of ambulance, and are typically equipped with basic medical equipment and supplies, such as bandages, gauze, and oxygen. ALS ambulances are equipped with more advanced medical equipment and supplies, such as defibrillators, IV bags, and suction machines. CCT ambulances are the most advanced type of ambulance, and are typically equipped with specialized medical equipment and supplies, such as ventilators, monitors, and infusion pumps.
