Brief summary: The "TakeCare!" study addresses the problem that vocational students of nursing care cope with great physical and psychological demands during their daily routines. To meet these demands, the Bavarian curriculum for generalist nurses has adopted the promotion of physical activity-related health competence (PAHCO) for vocational students. However, it must be assumed that the concept has not yet been adopted comprehensively across the Bavarian nursing landscape. Therefore, the "TakeCare!" study tackles the question of how PAHCO can be implemented most appropriately in Bavarian nursing schools. Drawing on experiences from the project PArC-AVE, three different dissemination approaches will being tested and compared with a control group. A total of 16 nursing schools from different regions of Bavaria will be assigned to four different study arms (cluster-randomized design). In the long term, the project aims to derive recommendations for all nursing schools in Bavaria.
