Alerts follow how devices are grouped
If every sensor sits in one big group, every alert goes to everyone. Group sensors by wing or floor first.
Match people to places
Assign each group to the staff who can physically get there in a minute or two.
Test with one room
Trigger a test in a single room and confirm who gets notified before rolling it out.

Grouping by wing fixed it for us. Whole admin team was getting pinged before.
