Measures to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spread to household members was assessed by surveying COVID-19–positive physicians and advanced practice providers. Showering and changing were more common than physical distancing. Half of respondents reported a symptomatic household member. Most reported increased stress, worsening of mental health, and concerns about illness and impact on family.
