ambulance driver
Siren vehicle operator
An ambulance driver operates the vehicle that transports patients to hospitals or medical facilities.
The term is sometimes used loosely for emergency medical technicians or paramedics, though those roles involve patient care beyond driving.
In casual speech, ambulance driver may understate the medical training these professionals have: He's not just an ambulance driver—he's a licensed paramedic.
