event handler notification

[Taylor Dondich]

That seems a bit weird?  In that case, why have an event handler
anyways?  You just tell notifications to be sent on the first soft
state change (max_check_attempts = 1).  Event Handlers are meant to
try and pro-actively resolve the issue before determining notification
is an appropriate step.
