You should treat for shock whenever a victim has experienced trauma or psychologically shocking events. In the absense of other evidence, you should generally assume your victim will get shocky. Remmeber that even the uninjured will sometimes fall into shock during a trauma call. This is a safe assumption to make, as first aid treatment for shock is harmless.
