ambulancemen

Medical rescue crew

Ambulancemen is the plural of ambulanceman, a somewhat dated British term for a person who works on an ambulance, providing emergency medical care and transport.

The gender-neutral *paramedic* or *ambulance worker* has largely replaced it: The ambulancemen arrived within minutes of the call.
