Working as an ambulance technician in France

Search for ambulancier or ambulancière, ambulancier diplômé d'État, ambulancier SMUR in hospitals, and auxiliaire ambulancier for the second crew member. The profession is regulated. You need the Diplôme d'État d'ambulancier (DEA), prepared in an IFA training institute, a category B licence held beyond the probationary period, a prefecture approval to drive ambulances, and a medical certificate with required vaccinations. The auxiliaire ambulancier role needs a short training course and the same approval, but not the diploma. Some heavier medical vehicles require a C licence. Hospital SMUR posts are usually filled by ambulanciers with several years in private companies.
