Colleen suggestions should help.

If you only need help from one Mayo appt to another, Mayo have escorts that can take you via wheel chair from one appt to another at downtown campus. Just let the nurse / desk attendant know that you will need someone to take you to next appt.

Not knowing exactly type of MRI you are having, the warning about "responsible adult" probably is because if you have any sedative they want to make sure you are not going to drive home, etc...
