Absolutely, if you want to maximize his chances of staying sober. Lots and lots and lots of people relapse almost immediately after leaving inpatient treatment. Alcohol is alcohol, to someone intent on drinking - no one's drink of choice is mouthwash or hand sanitizer, for example, but people do drink it to get drunk.
