Best Approach for Updating Related Collections When Client Document Changes

I have a Clients collection, and several other collections (ClientFollowUps, ClientHealths, ClientTracks, etc.) that contain a ClientId field referencing the Clients collection. Document security is enabled for all of them.
When creating or updating a Client document, I pass a Permission[] array along with the payload. This same Permission[] is also provided when creating documents in the ClientFollowUps, ClientHealth, and ClientTracks collections, derived from the specific client document.
I realized that whenever a Client document is updated, I also need to update the permissions in all related collections (ClientFollowUps, ClientHealths, ClientTracks, etc.) where the ClientId matches the client being updated.
Technically, it's possible to do this by querying all related documents and updating them whenever the specific client document is updated.
Given your experience and expertise, would you suggest continuing with this approach of updating all related collections whenever the client document is updated, or is there a better way to handle this?
