Celebrating 40 Years of Medicare

The Margaret River Library is showing a display celebrating Medicare’s 40th anniversary.

Library staff Suzie and Ana

40 years ago, Medicare was introduced in Australia to help everyone access a wide range of health and hospital services at low or no cost.

To celebrate, the Department of Health and Aged Care has launched a pop-up display in libraries across Australia to showcase the 40-year history of Medicare and provide information about current Medicare services available. Visit our library and check out the historical display.

Learn more about Medicare’s history by visiting health.gov.au/medicare-turns-40

The display will be on view to the public during library open hours, until the end of August and the Library is easily accessible.

The exhibition also showcases other creations by the artists including encaustic art mandalas, mosaic tiles and hand built models of birds. The Cocoon is a burst of vibrant colours and textures and is a must see. The exhibition is on show until the end of August.
