Subject: power and control
Коллеги, здравствуйте, помогите, пожалуйста, понять, что имеется в виду в последнем предложении под "removes power and control". Admission to a child or adolescent mental health inpatient setting would not usually be to manage self-harm per se, but would be to contain associated risks or address additional mental health co-morbidity, such as psychosis or depression. Indeed, some argue that admitting self-harming young people to hospital may often be ineffective or even make their self-harm worse. Health professionals sometimes try and stop young people self-harming. This removes power and control and may create the very circumstances that led to the self-harm in the first place.

English is 6 out of 10.

Health professionals sometimes (physically) restrain young people from self-harming. Inability to move and loss of control may (aggravate the patient and) create the very circumstances that led to the self-harming behavior in the first place.

Amor 71, это из книги, написанной тремя британскими медиками, причём, насколько понимаю, достаточно опытными и известными: https://books.google.com.ua/books?id=Ea_HBQAAQBAJ.

Согласитесь, если написано так, что люди вынуждены напрячь каждую извилину, чтобы осмыслить прочитанное, то текс написан плохо.

Admission to a child or adolescent mental health inpatient setting.

Предложение построено таким образом, что сразу в глаза бросается "Admission to a child". Что за чертовщина? Ах, они имели в виду "Admission to a...mental health inpatient setting for children and adolescents".

"would not usually be to manage self-harm per se, but would be to contain associated risks"

would be to contain associated risks and not to manage self-harm per se.

Health professionals sometimes try and stop young people self-harming.

"try and stop young people self-harming"??? По-вашему, это нормальный английский?
