I have an EMT license in America and am currently in medical school. EMT training is entirely centered around "stabilize the patient and get them in front of a physician". They have a limited range of capabilities, but the training they do have is focused on the things that will kill you quickly, and a brief overview of other things.
I think i know what you're trying to say but it sounds really really bad
But the "stabilize and transport asap but keep stable" is pretty much the goal for all ambulances world wide.
What I mean by that is there is a lot of training for heart attacks/cardiac arrest and significant trauma, but not a whole lot for general illnesses or more minor health problems.

Well yeah, but isn't that the ideal though? Stabilize the patient if needed, transport patient to where the doctors are who can then determine if it's something small or of they're about to die and require emergency surgery or something
That's the idea.
