Pull the wheelchair backwards into the elevator. The large back wheels will roll smoothly over the gap between the floor and the elevator, while the small front wheels may bind and dump the patient head-first onto the floor. Also, you can back up until you're touching the back wall without injury, but if you crash the patient's feet into the wall, it can cause damage.
