Abstract
In this chapter, we continue the theme of location for medical education, but now move away from work sites such as hospitals, to the clinical skills centre. Here, learning by simulation has become the dominant teaching method.
To make a good doctor we need medical schools to be honest with students and teach them about how things really are. We need to provide medical students with that most powerful and dangerous of life forces—reality.
