The toilet and sink are expected to be available and functioning by Monday. The bathroom hasn't been useable for at least a week. The provider and children have been using the master bathroom. This space isn't currently approved for use by the OSFM or the OCC. This remolding project effects the operation of the FCC home. The provider should have contacted this Lic. Spec. prior to starting the project to discuss it, and the OCC and the OSFM may have been able to approve the use of the master bedroom bathroom. Lic, Spec. inspected the bathroom today and the master bedroom that one must walk through to access the master bathroom.
