What happened

We were called to a patient who was over 500lbs and wasn 't able to be put on EMS stretcher inside of his home due to access. [REDACTED] took his wheelchair outside of his home to be put on the stretcher. It took 8 people including Fire Dept personnel to lift him on a mega mover from his wheelchair to EMS stretcher. Fire Dept failed to give a count and when we moved him I felt my lower back pain when they yanked him away from me.
