<unk> s (AEMT) are providers of prehospital<unk>  medical services in the United States. A transition to this level of training from the<unk>  medical<unk> -intermediate (EMT-I), which have somewhat less training, began in 2013 and has been implemented by most states at this point. The AEMT is not intended to deliver definitive medical care in most cases, but rather to augment prehospital critical care and provide rapid on-scene treatment. AEMTs are most usually employed in ambulance services, working in conjunction with EMTs and paramedics, however are also commonly found in fire departments and law enforcement agencies as non-transporting first responders. Ambulances operating at the AEMT level of care are commonplace in rural areas, and occasionally found in larger cities as part of a tiered-response system, but are overall much less common than EMT- and paramedic-level ambulances. The AEMT provides a low-cost, high-benefit option to provide<unk> -level care when the paramedic level of care is not feasible. The AEMT is authorized to provide limited<unk>  life support, which is beyond the scope of an EMT.
