Orleans Parish Communication District Urges 9-1-1 Callers to “Stay on the Line and Don’t Hang Up”
If an individual calls 9-1-1 and doesn’t receive an answer immediately, don’t hang up. Stay on the line because all calls are answered in the order they are received. When OPCD is experiencing a high volume of calls and a specialist is not available immediately, the call goes into the “queue,” and the caller will hear a voice announcement that provides this information. The call moves up the queue as the caller stays on the line. As soon as the call is next in the queue and a specialist becomes available, the call is answered.
If a person hangs up and calls back, that person will lose all progress that had been made on the previous call – and that first call could have been next in the queue to be answered. When a caller hangs up the phone, the request for help starts waiting again at the beginning of the queue when they call back.
