Dear Dr. Seok-Young Han,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Le Thi Huong, and I am a fourth-year nursing student at Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. I am currently conducting a research project titled “Knowledge, Attitude, and Confidence in Patient Safety Among Third- and Fourth-Year Nursing Students at Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine”, under the guidance of MSc. Nguyen Quoc Dai.

From my observation, research on "patient safety" among students—particularly nursing students—remains limited, with no similar study conducted at my university. Nursing students play a pivotal role in patient care as they frequently interact with patients and contribute significantly to ensuring safety in clinical settings. This study aims to objectively evaluate their knowledge, attitudes, and confidence, providing insights to enhance nursing education and improve the quality of patient care.

During my literature review, I came across your paper titled “A Study on Patient Safety Management’s Knowledge, Attitude, Confidence in Performance, and Practice during Pediatric-Adolescent Nursing Clinical Practice”, published in the Journal of Medical, Pharmaceutical, and Allied Sciences. I was particularly impressed by the comprehensive instrument you developed to assess nursing students’ knowledge, attitudes, and confidence regarding patient safety. I believe this instrument would be highly valuable for my research.

I am writing to kindly request your permission to use this instrument in my study. I assure you that it will be utilized with full respect for academic integrity and appropriately cited in all resulting publications. Additionally, I would greatly appreciate any specific guidance or instructions you may have regarding its proper use to ensure accuracy in its application.

Should you require further information or documentation, please feel free to contact me at [email protected].

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response.

Warm regards, Le Thi Huong Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine No. 2, Duong Quang Trung Street, Ward 12, District 10, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
