COURSE OVERVIEW:

Welcome to the Supporting Individuals with Tourette’s Syndrome course. This program has been designed to equip you with the knowledge, practical insight and supportive strategies required to understand Tourette Syndrome (TS), recognise its manifestations and comorbidities, and respond effectively to the needs of individuals and families living with this neurodevelopmental condition. You will explore the nature of TS, how it is diagnosed, why symptoms vary across individuals, and how supportive, informed environments can significantly improve quality of life and wellbeing.

This course begins by defining Tourette Syndrome, explaining how it is diagnosed, and describing its hallmark symptoms, including motor and vocal tics. This learning area clarifies what constitutes Malignant Tourette Syndrome, outlines the nature of motor and vocal tics and explains premonitory urges, addressing the question of whether tics are completely involuntary.

The next learning area explores the history, causes and contributing factors of Tourette Syndrome. This section examines genetic influences, abnormalities in brain chemistry, findings from brain imaging studies and the possible role of the immune system in TS. You will also consider how current scientific theories continue to evolve.

The next learning area examines the psychiatric disorders commonly associated with Tourette Syndrome. This learning area discusses the strong association between TS and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, why these conditions frequently co-occur, and how Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder presents in individuals with TS. Treatment approaches for OCD within this population are also explained.

The next learning area focuses on additional comorbidities, including depression, anxiety, learning difficulties, disruptive behaviours, substance abuse and sleep problems. This section explains how these issues affect individuals with TS and their families, and why early recognition and tailored support are essential.

The next learning area highlights coping strategies for Tourette Syndrome patients and their families. This learning area outlines the importance of educating parents, carers and the child with TS, the value of counselling, and the critical role of teachers in providing appropriate accommodations within educational settings.

The next learning area examines lifestyle and social considerations, including the benefits of encouraging hobbies and strengths, fostering confidence and identity, and providing strategies to manage teasing and bullying. The emphasis is on promoting resilience, self-advocacy and positive peer relationships.

By the end of this course you will be able to understand the diagnostic features and underlying factors of Tourette Syndrome, recognise and respond to common comorbidities, support individuals and families with effective coping strategies, work collaboratively with schools and professionals, and create environments that reduce stigma, foster acceptance and build confidence for individuals living with TS.

Inadequate
Have had the brush for 2 weeks. Brushed 7 pieces of my macrame project. Half the brush have sunken behind the rubber part of the brush, unusable. I used pliers to pull out some of the wire brush part. Not sure it will be sufficient to do the jobs I purchased it for.

High quality sheepskin!!
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 2' x 3' (Natural)
This sheepskin was purchased as a "chair cover" for my pets. It arrived with very nice packaging, along with detailed care instructions. The sheepskin was advertised as being"not white" online, and the company made very sure to state that the fur has an "off white/yellow" color. That was a little concerning for me, and I wasn't really sure whether it would have an off color, but it arrived exactly as described. There were no obvious discolorations, spots, or blemishes. In fact, it arrived as a soft "off white" color that is very beautiful and exquisite. The fur has a plush, even look, and there is no matting or fuzzy, "neglected teddy bear look" at all! I actually purchased another brand to see if I could distinguish the difference between the two. This particular sheepskin is by far the better of the two purchases. FYI: When the package was opened, there was no distinct odor. That's a huge plus! I will admit that the size was slightly smaller than expected. It really doesn't matter much in the space I'm using it for though. My miniature Dachshund loves it! If you're trying to find a high quality sheepskin, and you don't need to cover a very large space, this is definitely the one to buy!

The Quality of the sheepskin is awesome.
Color: Wolf Tip, Size: 2' x 3' (Natural)
This rug is a beautiful specimen of New Zealand sheep. The rug is very very soft, the rug is thick, and the brown tips are fabulous looking. All in all I'm very pleased with this purchase. The size is perfect as it measures 2' x 3'. I would buy again from this seller.

Plush rug that’s super soft. WOW!
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 6' x 7' (Natural)
Beautiful and super plush! I use it as an outer blanket when cold weather camping. Like a modern day cave man. One of my favorite purchases. I avoid kneeling on it while it’s on my mattress fearing it might split the hide, or damage the stitching. It fits my queen size camper bed. Cant say enough!
