## Description

You can use this MCP to bridge the gap between medical care plans and the actual logistics of getting a companion to an appointment. It is built for the non-medical support people who handle the movement and presence of a patient at a facility. Instead of manual checklists, your AI client manages the timeline, ensuring travel buffers are accounted for so no one is rushing. It handles the friction of facility entry by generating specific access checklists. You can also set strict boundaries on what information a companion is allowed to record or share, ensuring family consent is always respected. Once the appointment ends, the MCP helps transition to the next steps by generating necessary follow-up tasks. It turns a chaotic appointment day into a structured, predictable process for anyone supporting a patient.
