This can be done via escalations.

define serviceescalation{
        host_name               *
        service_description     *
        contact_groups          contactgroup_name
        first_notification      1
        last_notification       0
        notification_interval   60
        escalation_period       timeperiod_name
        escalation_options      w
}
