Error in na.fail.default(list(LengthOfStay.days = c(0, 0, 0, 0, 0,

What part of that error message is unclear? Have you looked at the
randomForest page? It tells you what the default behavior is na.fail.
I would greatly appreciate any help
I would seem that the way forward is to remove the cases with missing
values or to impute values.
