A variation of a method for tracking locations of residents within an assisted-care facility includes accessing pressure data recorded by wearable devices at known locations within the assisted-care facility; correlating the pressure data with known locations within the assisted-care facility to generate a map of pressure data at various locations within the assisted-care facility; accessing a first pressure value recorded by a first wearable device assigned to a first resident of the assisted-care facility at approximately the first time and representing a local pressure proximal the first wearable device at a first time; estimating a first location of the first wearable device within the assisted-care facility at approximately the first time based on alignment between the first pressure value and pressure data represented in the map; and recording the first location and a first resident identifier of the first resident assigned to the first wearable device to a database.
