Do all 3 of your pools use the same image/snapshot?  If so you only need to update the one image/snapshot.

If all 3 of your pools use different images/snapshots then you'll need to update all 3 images/snapshots.

You can do it either way but if you install to an individual desktop then those changes will be lost upon a refresh of the pool.   The best practice is to update all patches/software in the snapshot (golden image)  and update the pool based on this snapshot. 

You can also look into using Thinapp for your applications.
