### Select secondary checkpoint

To use a healthcare tablet to [verify visitors of a restricted unit](https://help.verkada.com/guest/healthcare/healthcare-visitor-verification), the tablet must be assigned to a [secondary checkpoint](https://help.verkada.com/guest/healthcare/manage-departments-and-checkpoints).

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Navigate to Guest Settings > Sites > Tablets, and select the desired tablet.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Select the drop-down menu for Checkpoint and choose the desired checkpoint.**
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Selecting the primary checkpoint with the same name as the Guest Site will ensure the tablet is dedicated to sign-in alone. Tablets assigned to the primary checkpoint are typically used for sign-in at the entrance of a hospital.
