Simulation has been advocated as a way to create a safe space to learn from error. This commentary describes why simulation exercises should define expectations, commit to a "fiction contract" with participants, be logistically realistic, and support psychological safety. The authors suggest that these elements will encourage open dialogue about the mistakes that arise during the exercise.
