DOH Issues Guidance On Healthcare Workers Return To Work

The New York State Department of Health issued the attached guidance which clarifies when to follow the NYSDOH return-to-work guidance issued on December 24, 2021 (NYSDOH Shortening Isolation) for healthcare workers and when to follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) return to
work guidance for healthcare personnel. It supersedes return to work guidance for healthcare personnel issued before December 24, 2021.

This is interim guidance. CDC guidance is in flux and will be reviewed by NYSDOH as it is
released. Additional requirements may be added.
