A call management system (136) and method that allows a first wireless voice call to be temporarily disconnected at a mobile device (130) while another communications session is performed from the same device (130). During a first voice call between a wireless communications device (130) and a second party, a network hold command is received. The second party is then placed on hold and wireless communications resources for the first wireless call are released. The wireless communications device (130) is subsequently reconnected to the second party. The reconnection includes removing the second party from hold and connecting the second party to the second voice call. A unit identifier (240) identifying the wireless communications device (130) is stored in an infrastructure database (114) along with an identifier of the first voice call to facilitate reconnection. Prior to reconnection, a wireless data communications session can be performed.
