Do emergency medical technicians ride in ambulances?
Short answer - Yes. Mainly emergency medical technicians (EMTs) are the first responders to the site of an accident, where they evaluate the patient (or patients). If they decide that the patient requires further medical help beyond what they can provide, they will stabilize the patient, place them on stretcher, and take them via ambulance to the hospital. The EMT's both arrive to the scene in an ambulance and ride with the patient in the ambulance to the hospital, monitoring the patient while they ride.

What do the ambulance people take you in?
The rule is different for all agencies, but where I work (in Pasco County Florida), we will allow 1 person to ride with the patient to the hospital (doesnt matter whether he/she is a relative or not) ALTHOUGH, we can refuse to allow ANYONE to ride if we feel that they may hinder patient care (e.g. being too dramatic or upset over the situation)

You need some experience working as a ground paramedic ( about 7 or 8 years, also air ambulance paramedics tend to work on response cars before they get selected to work on the HEMS unit (Helicopter Emergency Medical Service).

Can a paramedic refuse to take you to a certain facility?
In the UK, yes. You'll be taken to the nearest appropriate facility. Which facility that may be, will be decided by the Paramedic in discussion with the patient and/or their family and will be depend wholly on the patients condition. The patient cannot insist on a destination that is inappropriate or too far. Added: The same goes for the US. Unless you hire a private ambulance service - emergency medical personnel are bound by duty and law to take you to the closest facility who can treat your (supposedly) emergency condition.
