While in training to be a paramedic you will actually spend time outside of school riding along with actual paramedics to get a feel for the job. You will get to see and do everything they do.

In many countries, the driver of the ambulance is often qualified at Paramedic or higher, though by convention, the least qualified personnel is usually the driver of the ambulance in a crew shift.
