A communications apparatus establishes a communications session with a remote location and receives a request to place the communications session into monitored suspension. While in monitored suspension, the apparatus maintains the communications session, periodically communicates a prompt to the remote location, and monitors the session to detect an appropriate response from the remote location. When an appropriate response is received from the remote location, the apparatus signals the user and allows the communications session to proceed with normal processing.
