Yes.
I have interacted with a number of the police with regards to homeless individuals that were high or off their meds and endangering others, and the people responded promptly every time to coordinate with EMT/fire on getting them taken to a hospital.
I was almost hit by a truck while walking, and the officers took my report within minutes (though as nobody got the license plate, and I wasn't actually hit, the case went nowhere).
A friend once got a flat on the side of a narrow stretch of freeway and officers set up cones on the freeway until a mechanic replaced her flat so her car wouldn't get hit.
