Of course it does. Fire fighting is a real-life emergency. Or a service when those instances arise. The training in fire supression and in emergency medical intervention can be used by any trained person in just about any emergency situation. An off-duty fire fighter who witnesses an auto accident is prepared to render aid immediately. Even without a kit, he can go to work. And that's just one example. He may have done exactly what he is doing now just last night when he was on duty. Pick an emergency and your friendly neighborhood fire fighter has something in his bag of tricks he can apply to affect some kind of intervention. You can bet your life on it.
