Some (but fewer) DM's still just assume once the fights over you've got a whole party bringing their heal checks granting saving throws to bear, its not worth the play time to play it out.  This is the sort of thing a DM should figure out how he and the group feel on the subject and rule accordingly.</blockquote>
