While there have been several models described and evaluated in the literature, the main commonality of LICs is continuity: continuity for students, patients, supervisors (preceptors) and community. This continuity has been shown to foster a sense of belonging and a feeling that learners have a legitimate place in the health care team. During LICs, trust builds over time and there is less disruption to learning as students are not moved from place to place every 4–8 weeks, requiring time for orientation after each move. The authors of this Toolbox have wide experience of LICs in the USA but are also familiar with LICs in other countries. They highlight the seven 'C's of learning and teaching, summarised in a handy box: continuity, connection, communication, coaching, commitment, care, and community. While this article focuses on LICs for medical students, particularly in rural areas there may be students from other health professions co-located. This gives opportunities for interprofessional learning – both formal and serendipitous. The Toolbox contains many practical ideas for optimal patient-centred LICs and acknowledges the tremendous contributions of patients and clinicians to student learning. Funding: None.
