If you are not having any symptoms there is no need for admission. Home isolation is sufficient.
However it is still unclear that the report is false positive or you are symptomatic carrier.
Take all prevention to avoid contact with you family member.

Get a repeat test from another certified centre.

Home isolation is enough . But being asymptomatic doesn’t mean you’re false positive . Many patients experience no / very mild symptoms but are capable of spreading the disease .
