You'll get a variety of responses. IMHO, EXACTLY the correct response....
Remember, it's not only the dementia that will create issues. You have the mentally 'alert' people in there who resent being there (for various reasons --- people are people) and you are the only one they can take frustrations out on. But, of course, you cannot do your job and tolerate 'bad behavior'.
You took, what I think, is an appropriate, professional, response.
