When I took first responder training many years ago (in Phoenix) they said, "Unless you have training with how to deal with firearms, just leave it there and don't touch it. IF you do have training, secure the firearm. Don't withold treatment unless the placement of the firearm prevents it."

Unofficially, the instructor said, if it was holstered, and you can get the holster off, take the gun and holster off if you need to.

Usually, what will happen is the firearm will be discovered during a specific examination that an EMT/First responder type will do. At that point, as I understand it in Texas, usually, the firearm will be given to a responding police officer who will secure it.
