How many kinds of ambulances are there?
Ambulance is a special vehicle in professional application and medical field. According to the national ambulance professional standards, ambulances can be divided into transport ambulances, monitoring ambulances, blood transport ambulances, health and epidemic prevention ambulances and fire rescue command vehicles.
1, transport ambulance
Transfer ambulance, also called transport ambulance, refers to an ambulance that can be used to transport patients with relatively stable condition to the hospital. Transport ambulances have general first-aid medical equipment and necessary items, which can treat the wounded at the scene or during transportation, but generally only some simple medical treatments such as infusion, oxygen inhalation, hemostasis and dressing are allowed during transportation.
2. Guard the ambulance
Guard ambulance, also called emergency ambulance, refers to an ambulance equipped with first-aid resuscitation equipment and essential drugs, which can rescue critically wounded people at the scene or during transportation.
3. Blood transport ambulance
Blood ambulance, referred to as blood truck for short, refers to an ambulance equipped with professional equipment for transporting blood, which can transport blood for medical and health institutions according to relevant requirements.
4, health and epidemic prevention ambulance
Health and epidemic prevention ambulance refers to an ambulance equipped with professional emergency equipment for health and epidemic prevention, which can deal with the epidemic situation on the spot urgently.
5, fire rescue command vehicle
Fire rescue command vehicle refers to an ambulance with on-site command function, which is used for on-site first aid command of large-scale disasters and accidents.
It is worth mentioning that, because the transfer ambulance and surveillance ambulance are commonly used in hospitals, people often refer to these two ambulances.
