medical crew

Emergency response personnel

A medical crew is the team of healthcare professionals staffing an ambulance, helicopter, or other emergency transport vehicle.

The term emphasizes their function as a unit rather than as individual practitioners: The medical crew stabilized the patient before transport.

In military contexts, medical crews may staff field hospitals or evacuation aircraft.
