I used to have the same difficulty with staff, my advice is that when you next have a DT meeting with your FM explain your concerns and ask for assistance and advice on how to deal with staff.
If I have a resident that needs assistance with the bathroom I ring the bell for the AIN and ask her to please assist, and carry on with my activity.
Golden Carers is a phenomenal and creative resource of activities for the senior population and people with dementia. They also provide resources and support for the caregiver too. I liked all the different types of activities that were available. You could pick and choose from a plethora of items the activities appropriate for your group. Keep on doing what you are doing. So many people's lives have been touched and improved by your website. Your website is a blessing to many organisations.

Hope this is a help, keep your chin up
