Isolation and Quarantine Documents

Franklin County Public Health has provided documents that can be printed and filled out upon receiving a positive test. These forms can be completed as you or your child go through the isolation and quarantine process and shared with parties that may require these documents, such as your employer.

If you are unable to download or print the documents, please call Franklin County Public Heath at 518-481-1709, and choose the option for Isolation and Quarantine (option 2) for assistance.
