Explanation:
This is the procedure whereby the medical staff identify themselves to the patient and check that they're treating the right person by asking for their name and date of birth. It's explained here - unfortunately I can't copy and paste it to save you the trouble of clicking on the link.

I don't think I'd say "unit", because it implies some kind of physical object.

As my reference shows, it would also include checking the patient's wristband.
