Injury - Rest of the players

Spirited discussion between me and another official as we watched a game.

A1 is hurt, A1's coach is beckoned and officials send players towards their respective benches and remind them to "stay on the floor".
While near the bench, players get drinks of water, towel off, etc.

Are the players allowed to get a drink? It is not a time out, but a stoppage of play. An injury stoppage could be for 30 secs or several minutes.

In practice, I would allow it, but I am not sure there is rule or case book support to allow (or dis-allow)

Are you aware of rule or case support either way?
