Apt calls needrestart, so it isn't necessary to run it in the
background.

Unattended upgrades will inform you of which processes it restarted,
which it did not restart, and whether a reboot is required. I have it
set a reboot on some of my machines, but not on machines that have
encrypted storage which require a passphrase to boot.
