Is there a place in the rule book that tells you what to do, or does this fall under the "official's discression" category??

Rule 5-8-2d Note: "When a player is injured as in Art.2(a), the official may suspend play after the ball is dead or is in control of the injured player's team.... When necessary ..., the official may immediately suspend play."
