Through the analysis of the various forms of charity and assistance provided by the Charitable Society and the Fight against Infantile Paralysis Association, it seeks o contribute in the rethinking of some aspects of the relationships between charity and assistance, voluntary work and professional work. In addition, it analyzes the role played by health visitors, nurses and volunteers in materializing the different forms of medical assistance and in providing care, physical and emotional welfare to sick children. This article concludes by pointing out the relevant, although less evident, role of health “assistants” and specialized “volunteers”, not only in solving out the health emergency but also as necessary predecessors for the subsequent incorporation of other women to the rehabilitation health field through paid occupations that gradually became professional jobs. El artículo explora el surgimiento de un primer andamiaje de concepciones, acciones y servicios socio-sanitarios para dar respuesta a la poliomielitis prestando atención a las relaciones entre la filantropía privada y la corporación médica, en la ciudad de Buenos Aires durante la primera mitad del siglo XX, A través del análisis de las formas de performar la caridad y la asistencia de la Sociedad de Beneficencia y de la Asociación para la Lucha contra la Parálisis Infantil, se busca contribuir a repensar algunos aspectos de la relación entre beneficencia y asistencia, voluntariado y profesionalización. Se explora, además, el papel que tuvieron las visitadoras, nurses y voluntarias en la materialización de las modalidades de atención médica y en la provisión de cuidados y de bienestar físico y afectivo de los niños enfermos. Se concluye señalando el importante aunque menos visible protagonismo de las “auxiliares” de la medicina y de las “voluntarias” especializadas, no solo en la resolución de la emergencia sanitaria sino también como antecesoras necesarias para la posterior incorporación de otras mujeres al campo sanitario de la rehabilitación a través de ocupaciones rentadas que se profesionalizaron gradualmente.
