Including the intercultural aspect in classes can pose great challenges for ESP teachers. First of all, when we try to find the balance between language learning and improving intercultural competence, we may face various problems on how to support both without the two counteracting one another. Furthermore, we must see and acknowledge our competences and responsibilities when teaching communication as ESP teachers. Lastly, we have to be knowledgeable in how to gradually improve intercultural communication among learners with different language proficiency levels. In our paper we aim to find answers to these questions based on our experience in teaching intercultural communication to health service manager students.

The goals of managerial personnel in Health Service include: defining duties for personnel teams, initiating and co-ordinating team work, care for development and improvement of potential of workers. Requirements for modern companies do not allow for forcing specific behaviour among personnel but praise the ability to communicate by partnership and co-operation and quality of co-operation between the managing person and personnel. Assuming a thesis that there are preferred goals in management by Health Service managers, an attempt to identify them was made with the model of the Inventory of Person Management Styles WERK. The research was conducted on a group of 60 Health Service managers performing functions on various organizational levels. Respondents were managers hired in the public and non-public health care facilities from the Silesian and Podkarpackie Provinces. The analysis of results points that for the largest group of managers, the managing styles model WERK did not define both the dominating managing style as well as a style least typical for management. The fact indicates that managers in the health care facilities probably use the management style adequate to the situation or have the ability to switch between management styles using the characteristics typical for many management styles or use two or more management behaviors which they consider effective. Probability of existing specific management styles can be assumed as well, which are used by the Health Service managers and which have not been defined by the management styles model WERK.

PLANNING IS AN ESSENTIAL PART of modern organisations and is integral to the role of a health service manager. The planning activity emerges as a consequence of the need to contain costs, manage health outcomes, and be held accountable for the effective, efficient and equitable provision of health services. Amidst the challenge to operate within the current resource (ie, financial, human and time) capacity there is an imperative to explore and develop innovative service delivery models to meet increased demand and expectations. Therefore, textbooks on the subject of planning in health-related topic areas are a valuable resource in these very challenging times in health care.

Abstract School speech-language pathologists and districts frequently need guidance regarding how the legal provisions of special education affect the needs of children with dysphagia. This article reviews key principles of special education that guide eligibility determination and provision of services to all children. In the eligibility process, the school team would determine if the child's disability has an adverse effect on his/her education program and if the child needed special education (specially designed instruction) and related services. Dysphagia services would be considered a related service, a health service needed for the child to benefit from specially designed instruction. The article concludes with recommendations for practice that stem from a review of due process hearings and court cases for children with disabilities that include swallowing.
