As I understand it each vehicle in a station carries an EMT and the necessary equipment that would be found in the EMT vehicle. This assures that a qualified EMT is on site and reduces the response times if the emergency EMT vehicle is on another call. They don't have to wait or have a response from an area farther away. Outside the dome there is a more specialized approach, EMT for health, fire trucks for fire and hazards. That's my understanding and I'm sure there are those here that have more knowledge.
