Yes, an Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) can work on an emergency ambulance without being an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) first. EMRs are trained to provide basic lifesaving care and assist EMTs and paramedics in emergency situations. However, their scope of practice is limited compared to EMTs, and they must operate under the supervision of licensed EMTs or paramedics. Each state may have specific regulations regarding the roles and responsibilities of EMRs in the ambulance setting.
Most EMT's will find employment as there is always a need for first responders. Also there is normally a fee when their services are needed. An ambulance is not covered under free healthcare.

An ambulance is a ground vehicle equipped to transport patients to medical facilities, often staffed with paramedics or EMTs. A helicopter, particularly a medical or air ambulance, is an airborne vehicle used for rapid transport of patients, especially in emergencies where ground access is limited or time-sensitive. While both serve the purpose of medical transport, the main difference lies in their mode of transportation and the scenarios in which they are utilized.

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.
