On Friday, May 16, the Final Gala of the 4th edition of the nationwide “Together for Seniors” competition took place at the Presidential Palace in Warsaw. The competition is held under the patronage of the First Lady of Poland, Agata Kornhauser-Duda.
One of this year’s laureates was Mariusz Sutryk, MSc – a nurse, paramedic, and lecturer at the Lublin-based WSEI University. He was awarded 3rd place in the category “Youth for Seniors” for his efforts to improve the quality of life for elderly people.

Mr. Sutryk also conducts workshops and lectures as part of the University of the Third Age, provides guidance on medical testing, educates about safe medication practices, and speaks about common mistakes in diagnostics and first aid.
- This is a great honor both for the students and for the Nursing Scientific Circle operating within the Monoprofile Medical Simulation Center at WSEI University. This success would not have been possible without the dedication, passion, and persistent work of our Circle’s members and everyone who supported our project. Everyone contributed something unique and valuable, which helped us achieve this success together. I am deeply grateful for this cooperation and proud to be part of such an inspiring and committed community - emphasized Mr. Sutryk.
