Under the current law enacted in 1943, an ambulance may have only one attendant, who may be the driver, with the equivalent of eight hours of Red Cross first aid training. The bill co-sponsored by Sens. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, and Bill Sarpalius, D-Amarillo, mandates four levels of person nel certification with a minimum of 40 hours of training approved by the state. “Laws to regulate ambu lances have not been updated in Texas over the past 40 years,” said Sarpalius.
