The ambulance diversion, which was in effect for less than a week, was lifted Feb. 6, Scott County (Tenn.) Mayor Jeff Tibbals told The Independent Herald.
The diversion was the latest in a string of issues at Big South Fork Medical Center, which is owned by West Palm Beach, Fla.-based Rennova Health. In recent weeks, the hospital has delayed payroll and its med-surge unit closed due to a lack of staff, according to the report.
