Probably not… Just turn it off for him for the time being, the battery will end up dying eventually anyway. I’m sure if he needs to call anyone or anyone wishes to call him, there are phones in the rehab center that he can use. Besides, the nurses there probably want him concentrating on getting better, not making/taking tons of phone calls. They probably also worry that he will be communicating with old [drug-using] friends or dealers whom he should not be having contact with while in rehab.

Best of luck to him!!
