Nope. Alarm fatigue is a well documented problem in the medical field.

Like residents who are getting a few hours of sleep over days worth of high-stress / high-stakes work, poor hand-washing between patients, and not clearly printing one's handwriting on prescription forms - all things that kill patients - doctors and hospital administrators just don't care enough.

For a profession that is supposedly so pure morality-wise - do no harm, patient privacy, etc - doctors are remarkably careless.
