The care practices to which we will refer develop in the paid work relations context within the public and private health system fields of Cuyo region, Argentina. The analysis is carried out through a critical feminist approach based on inputs from the disciplinary convergence of the sociology of social relations of sex, the psychodynamics of work, the materialist feminism and the theories of care. The research develops under a qualitative methodology, using in-depth interviews in order to trace the current labor conditions and the violence experienced by women within the environment of sexual division of labor. The global context affected by the COVID-19 pandemic uncovers the vulnerability and precariousness of our lives, and points out the importance of care work. Taking into account the existing strengthening of the connection of police control with care control we seek to provide tools that contribute to a better understanding of the nature of care work. We aim to achieve this from a perspective that proposes to incorporate into care practices all the different existing discourses, subjectivities, emotions, and power relations. En este artículo abordaremos las condiciones de trabajo de cuidados de enfermeras, las violencias que experimentan en tanto trabajadoras, y las estrategias de cuidados y resistencias que tejen entre ellas; en el marco de relaciones de trabajo asalariado del sistema sanitario público y privado de la Región de Cuyo, Argentina. Partimos desde un punto de vista feminista crítico y de los aportes provenientes de la confluencia disciplinar entre la sociología de las relaciones sociales de sexo, la psicodinámica del trabajo, el feminismo materialista y las teorías del cuidado. El análisis se desarrolla bajo una metodología cualitativa, y se utiliza la entrevista en profundidad para rastrear en los relatos las condiciones laborales y las violencias que padecen en tanto mujeres en la división sexual del trabajo. En el contexto atravesado por la pandemia del COVID-19, se expuso con más fuerza la precariedad y vulnerabilidad de nuestras vidas, a la vez que la centralidad que tienen los trabajos de cuidados. Frente al fortalecimiento de un sentido policíaco y de control del cuidado, procuramos aportar herramientas que complejicen la comprensión de la naturaleza de los cuidados, en una mirada que propone integrar discursos, subjetividades, emociones, relaciones de poder y significaciones.
