Design: A longitudinal survey (baseline, 12 month follow-up) was used. Methods: A panel sample of 226 older people care employees in Spain and Sweden responded to survey questions concerning organizational change, turnover intentions, overcommitment, and perceptions of quality of care. The data was analysed using structural equational modelling.
