paramedic-like
A very rare, non-standard adjectival use meaning 'in the manner of a paramedic' or 'carried out by a paramedic.' As a rule, the adjective 'sanitäterisch' is used instead.
Die Erstversorgung, schnell und Sanitäter, rettete ihm das Leben.
The first aid, quick and paramedic-like, saved his life.
The use of 'Sanitäter' (paramedic) as an adjective is extremely rare and is not part of standard German. It is found at most in literary or very creative language to achieve a special effect.
Seine Hilfe, schnell und Sanitäter, war beeindruckend.
His help, quick and paramedic-like, was impressive.
This rare adjective is derived directly from the very common noun 'der Sanitäter' (the paramedic). It attempts to express the characteristic manner of a paramedic's action.
Der Sanitäter leistete professionelle Erste Hilfe.
The paramedic provided professional first aid.
When 'Sanitäter' (paramedic) is used as an adjective, it usually remains unchanged, without a declensional ending, after the noun it describes. It is often used predicatively or as an apposition.
Die Versorgung des Verletzten erfolgte Sanitäter und effizient.
The care of the injured person was paramedic-like and efficient.
sanitary
'Sanitäter' as an adjectival form and 'sanitär' look similar, but they do not mean the same thing. The adjectival use of 'Sanitäter' is very rare and non-standard; when referring to the work or manner of a paramedic, people normally say 'sanitäterisch'. 'sanitär', by contrast, has to do with hygiene, toilets, bathrooms, clean water, or wastewater. The words can be confused because of their similar form. The important point is: for help given to injured people, 'sanitäterisch' fits, not 'sanitär'. For bathrooms, toilets, and hygiene, 'sanitär' fits.
Die Form „sanitäter“ klingt in diesem Satz unüblich; natürlicher wäre „sanitäterisch“.
The form 'sanitäter' sounds unusual in this sentence; 'sanitäterisch' would be more natural.
Die Schule lässt die sanitären Anlagen in den Ferien erneuern.
The school is having the sanitary facilities renovated during the holidays.
