Alert fatigue

Alert fatigue leads to desensitization to important alerts

What is alert fatigue? 

Alert fatigue is a condition where individuals exposed to a high number of alarms become desensitized and thus overlook or respond incorrectly to important alerts. This often occurs in environments with high alarm frequency, such as healthcare, where constant alarms can lead to critical alerts being ignored.

Alert fatigue can be compared to living near a busy road. Eventually, you stop noticing the sound of traffic, even though it might be important to hear a car horn warning of danger.

Sicra and alert fatigue 

Sicra actively works to reduce alert fatigue. Sicra can help businesses manage security alarms through the "security monitoring" service. These services ensure that alarms are handled effectively and that important alerts do not go unnoticed.
