Servier County Medical Center’s fall opening could be delayed because of theft on its properties. In a Facebook post, the Tennessee healthcare facility revealed that the construction site was vandalized as thieves allegedly broke in and stole an undetermined amount of copper lines that had already been installed and other tools that were used for construction.  

Due to the amount that was stolen, the medical center announced that it would foresee a potential delay in opening its services, which was scheduled for Sept. 20, 2022.  

Planning of the Servier County Medical Center has taken several years. Prior to the theft, windows had already been placed, bricks were laid, and interior walls had been put up.
