Go to your county board meeting or the council meeting if you're in the city, it is not that hard to be frank getting in front of them.
County and City Officials are not impenetrable.

Actually that's why we vote people into office. We can contact our Supervisor, Council Member, Mayor, Gov, etc.
They are hiring btw.

They could have an option for life threatening push one and an operator holds a non life threatening call or the dispatcher says hold to answer and ask if it's life threatening.
Alternatively, the State Police could run assist on dispatch, we have a Governor, between our Mayor, Governor, and Board of Supervisors this is not something as taxpayers we should accept any excuse for btw.
Richmond City is experiencing the longest wait times.
My grandmother and aunt were dispatchers so I know the three shifts offered to them and how their schedule works.
Yes they are under paid, however paid more than rural counterparts, where you have to wait for volunteers for fire and emt after an emergency call.

Unfortunately that doesn’t help in medical emergencies, but I catch your drift.

If 911 actually answers in the city right now that would be a step in the right direction currently. Calling 911 and holding for 30 minutes is incomprehensible
