A post office from Brzozów in the province Podkarpackie came with the help of a lonely old woman
Jakub Drożdżal, a postman from UP Brzozów, is another employee of Poczta Polska who did not pass indifferently to a man in need. Professional experience, intuition and empathy meant that he reacted in a situation that worried him. Another event, which later happened in the vicinity of the institution where he works, proves that not everyone would do the same.
As always, Mr. Jakub went out into the area and began delivery of shipments. He started from the town of Humniska, which he served in a substitute. He served the parcels to almost all addressees. He only had one letter for an older, lonely lady. It was not his first replacement in this area, so he knew the client and her habits. You often spent time sitting by the window. This time the postman did not notice her from the outside the building. She didn't go to the door, she didn't answer when he called it. At first he thought that Mrs. Bronisława was not at home, but the premonition did not give him peace. He pulled the door handle and the door was not closed. The addressee did not respond to the greeting "Good morning". The postman went on and noticed that the old lady was lying near the tiled stove. He couldn't find out from her what happened and how she felt, so he called for help as soon as possible. When he made sure he was in the safe hands of the paramedics, he returned to his duties.
The letter served the next day. He was picked up by a senior daughter. She thanked for help and said that if it wasn't for the vigilance and empathy of Mr. Jakub, her mother could be dead. On the day of the accident, probably no one else would come to her anymore. The daughter visited her and brought dinner, but she always did it around noon. These long hours, during which an old lady would not receive help, could be deadly for her.
- We are extremely proud of Mr. Jakub. Selfless help and empathy are part of the catalog of the noblest human behavior. We try to reward such values in Poczta Polska. The attitude of our postman proves how important post -postmen play in local communities. They are close to people, they know their clients, which has already saved human life more than once - said Krzysztof Falkowski, president of Poczta Polska.
The incident occurred a few months ago. During this time, only the postman, his superior, saved client and her family knew about him. Mr. Jakub, like many employees of Poczta Polska, who came to the help of others, did not want to tell anyone about it. He decided that he did nothing big and everyone would do the same in his place. It turns out that it is different.
A month ago, a woman fell under our UP Brzozów facility. She cut her head. She asked for help people passing by, but only the employees of Poczta Polska reacted. They gave her first aid and called an ambulance. Others passed by pretending that nothing had happened.
The situations described above are not the only stories in which the post office showed a heroic attitude and above -average concern for customers. Only recently another postman, from the same region (Rzeszów region), Piotr Byjoś rescued the life of another client. Earlier, Poczta Polska workers have been many times saved the sick, the disabled, people from burning homes, or the victims of the fraudster and scams. Often they are seniors who are victims of theft, but also live alone and often nobody knows if nothing bad is happening to them.
