My brother has staph, and I had to change his gauz and the packing inside the wound. Will i get it?

He has a wound on his leg that was infected with staph. He is on antibiotics now, but im guessing the staph is still active in the wound. It was getting to expensive to have his packing changed at the hospital so I did it with gloves on. Afterwards i washed my hands with surgical scrub soap that we got from a nurse that's a friend. How likely is it that i will get staph? I know it was dumb to do this but he is my brother and asked so I did it.
