The first thing that comes to mind is domestic disputes. I can definitely see that being an area where having a social worker as a first responder might produce better results than a cop. Also, vehicle collisions, or hit-and-runs where the police are just taking a statement from the person who was hit - I'd bet that's one of the more common calls that police currently respond to. Probably noise complaints? There are going to be others but off the top of my head those sound right.

I have heard many times over the years that domestic dispute calls are tops among the most dangerous type of calls for officers.
I guess the argument could be made that it's due to the way the police handle them, but from what I understand, more officers are injured and killed responding to domestic dispute calls than any other.
