I think so. I work in EMS and we use 24 hr. All my clocks and devices are set to 24 hr and I am irritated when I can’t change them off the 12 hr clock. It’s safer, if I tell you a medication was last administered at 10:00 there’s room for error, but if I tell you it was given at 2200 there’s no confusion.
Don’t hospitals use 24 hours too?
