    Paramedics generally work for the fire department, and ambulances are dispatched from fire stations. The driver on the ambulance is often just a regular fire department chauffer who drew the short straw and is working ambulance duty that shift.

      I guess it’s different depending on location. Here the ambulances are private companies and the FD has nothing to do with them
