Joshua Paredes keeps wondering if there was something that could have been done to save his close friend and roommate, Michael Odell.– investigators believe he likely took his own life after abruptly leaving in the middle of his shift.
"I just – I don’t understand how that happened," Paredes told KTVU, questioning whether Stanford had done enough to locate Odell the morning he disappeared before it was too late. "A nurse doesn’t just leave their patients unless they’re in danger. That’s the only reason that would happen – or they’re hurt somewhere."
"We’re running on skeleton crews right now so nurses are exhausted. The new normal is for nurses to work 48 hours a week, which is what Michael was doing," he said. "Upon being informed that Odell may be missing, we alerted authorities and worked with them to help confirm his whereabouts. Several of our nurses personally participated in the search efforts," the statement says.A recent poll among health care workers published in the journal of internal medicine found 74% percent of them had depression, 37% reported post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms and 15% had suicidal thoughts.
