Don't use bathroom sink

I'm at the brewhaus and it appears the drop ceiling and light in the bathroom collapsed sometime overnight or at least since someone was last here. I'll clean the debris the best I can, but I'm a bit concerned about possible live wires from the light. Also it appears the sink got hit and rocked from the impact, it looks like it cracked the drain pipe off the sink so it now drains into it's cabinet instead of the pipe.

I believe I may have the sink

I believe I may have the sink fixed, although Im not entirely confident its done correctly.  At the very least it is draining properly again.  I removed the fallen debris, the light is still wired up so I flipped it around and leaned it next to the wall to eliminate the strain on the wires.  I cleaned the sink and gave the room a brief sweeping as best I could, but nothing too serious, as the proper repairs are likely to filth it up again.

While brewing today , I was

While brewing today , I was able to break away and rehang the light. It is now supported completely seperate  from the grid it's on.  It's not pretty , but it's safe and in the ceiling. Additional ceiling grid and tile are needed to complete the job. Also the sink is still leaking and needs a proper fix ,  I believe it just needs a vertical extension of the p trap. I turned off the water to the sink.
