Why the word ambulance written backwards on the front of the Ambulance?
So that drivers ahead of it on the road can read it (correctly) as AMBULANCE in their rear-view mirrors, and yield the right of way.
If the word was not reversed, the drivers of the cars ahead of the vehicle would see: "ECNALUBMA."
Of course, if it has flashing lights and sirens going, they would yield to it anyway. Perhaps this was done so that drivers would not mistake an ambulance for a police vehicle with similar lights.

What is the telephone number of ambulance?
911 911 911 911 911 This is a great question 'cause people get all confused about what's paid for and what's not paid for and what ambulance is closest to them, etc. Always dial 911 in case of a health emergency. They know where you are calling from and where the nearest ambulance dispatch is located, and if you describe a particular problems (i.e., burns) will know the most appropriate center for you to be seen. Never waste time. 911 is for all medical emergencies and the people on the other end of the phone are trained to do triage while the ambulance is one the way. It is an incredible service that's saved the lives of many of us. Good luck!
How does the ambulance help people?
The blue, six-pointed star with the symbol of a snake spiraling around a staff is known as the Star of Life.
The symbol was originally designed by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. After the trademark expired, the symbol was given to the National Registry of EMTs for use as their logo. This symbol has traditionally remained to signify an Emergency Medical Technician or their equipment.
Each aspect of the Star of Life actually has a distinct meaning, with each point of the star representing a distinct event that occurs during the typical medical situation. The snake-entwined staff in the center has many theories on its origin, and is the subject of much debate.
Quote Wikipedia:
"The term ambulance comes from the Latin word ambulare, meaning to walk or move about which is a reference to early medical care where patients were moved by lifting or wheeling."
Well, there you have it.

Why is the word ambulance written in mirror image on an ambulance?
The aim of this is to allow people driving in front of the vehicle (ambulance) to see the word "AMBULANCE" when he/she looks in the rear view mirror. If the word was not reversed, the driver of the car ahead of the vehicle would see: "ECNALUBMA"
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.
