Is it illegal to remove a ventilator from a patient in a DR hospital ?
Can family members make that decision with the physician?

Thank you all for your responses. A family member is being kept alive on a ventilator in SD, and yesterday someone told my husband they "can't" disconnect it (40-something nephew was shot 4x, one in lung). The way it was said he thought maybe it was illegal. My first thought was that it couldn't be, but then had thoughts about church influence on government here.
