CODE 22 concerns cellular caller advisement/notification. What is the purpose?

• A. Cellular caller advisement/notification.
• B. Radio channel change required.
• C. Call forwarding to another agency.
• D. Emergency alert broadcast.

Answer: (A)

CODE 22 is about informing cellular callers. When a call comes from a cell phone, dispatch uses this code to advise the caller of the status of their call, what will happen next, and any instructions or updates they need. This ensures clear, proactive communication so the caller knows they’re being attended to and understands the next steps. It’s not about changing radio channels, transferring to another agency, or issuing an emergency alert—those functions are handled by different codes.
