What I was taught in school is that NO you can not call time of death, we are considered "Medical Investigators" if you will, not Doctors. So even if you pull a body out of the river on a rescue mission, they are freezing, non responsive you work on them, you secure their airway as unconcious patients can not, tube/bag ... ABC's and get them to the hospital. And then leave it at the door because you as an EMT/Medic did your best.

What do ambulance people do?

Ambulance attendant is an old name for what is now known as an EMT or paramedic. In today's ambulances there are two people in each vehicle, supplemented by additional persons from the fire department in the case of a critical transport. In the case where two people involved, there is a driver and an attendant. The attendant, who is either an EMT or paramedic, is the one who sits in the ambulance with the patient until they arrived at a hospital. Ambulance drivers, who are often also EMT or paramedics, are going to be charged with driving the ambulance. If the driver is an EMT or paramedic he will take that role once he arrives at the pickup site or the hospital.
